Tutu School offers different aged classes for your tiny dancer. Starting at 18-24 months old, 2-3 year old classes, 4-5 year old classes and 6-8 year old classes. This holiday season give the gift of dance for a special child in your life. This will be the gist that keeps giving through out their lives.
