35 years of dance, fitness and joy.
Strong Minds. Happy Hearts.
At Dancercise Kids®, we turn every class into an adventure full of dancing, fitness, and music! Your kids will be having so much fun, they won't even realize they're also learning valuable life lessons along the way. With every joyful dance move, every burst of creativity, and every high-energy routine, they're building confidence, imagination, and a 'can-do' attitude. Because when kids are having a blast, there's no limit to what they can achieve!
What Is Dancercise?
Dancercise Kids is a positive, non-competitive, comprehensive program of fitness, dance, movement and education for pre-school kids and beyond. Far from your run-of-the-mill dance program, Dancercise Kids focuses on fun for the kids while exposing them to good life lessons that all parents can support! Combined with our catchy and parent-friendly music (no rehashed nursery rhymes here!) we like to think we're raising the 'barre' on kids' dance and fitness programming!
Tessa Pfeifer, CEO and Founder
From the time she started teaching dance classes in high school, Tessa Pfeifer was never satisfied with traditional lesson music. So she decided to write original songs for her classes and an entire curriculum to go with them!
Tessa's upbeat tunes reinforced the themes of her unique lessons. They taught kids about nutrition, fitness and fun. And Dancercise Kids® was born!
The response from her students was overwhelming. Parents and teachers began requesting the unique curriculum at their own centers and schools. And Tessa started training instructors to keep up with the demand.
Today, Dancercise Kids® is still growing, with new instructors teaching their own classes to delighted kids (and pleased parents) all over the Midwest.
Now, Tessa has made her curriculum available to other dance studios, fitness centers, schools and teachers that want to teach Dancercise, and is also now recording and performing in her own right!
