KINDERDANCE is the #1 rated children's developmental dance, gymnastics and movement program in the U. S. Our programs are designed for children 2 to 8 years old. KINDERDANCE and KINDERGYM are taught to 3 to 5 year olds, KINDERTOTS is taught to 2 year olds, and KINDERCOMBO is taught to 6 to 8 year old children. In the U. S. and Canada, classes are taught on-site at child care facilities and other viable locations, including dance studios, recreation centers, community centers and school systems. Due to the differences in approach to child care in different countries, KINDERDANCE INTERNATIONAL will evaluate each international franchise opportunity on an individual basis. KINDERDANCE offers a complete franchise package, including initial training, start-up supplies and on-site visits. -1
