That's very important for many dance schools around the country. The ESBQ, for example, begins working with students at the age of three. We offer classes for parents and their three-year-olds. We introduce them to dance. They may not necessarily embark on a career in dance but they will have had exposure to it. They may attend dance performances.
More than 1,000 adults and children participate in our recreational program. Our classes are full and have very long waiting lists to get in. Children need to continue going to school, but it's also important for them to be introduced to dance, just as they are introduced to drama or music.
