Enchanted Threads – FAQ for Parents

What is Enchanted Threads?

Enchanted Threads is a 12-week creative movement and storytelling class for children ages 7–10. Rooted in Waldorf principles and the developmental needs of the whole child, this experience invites children to explore music, painting, story-making, and expressive dance—culminating in a magical group performance.

Does my child need prior dance experience?

No dance experience is necessary. This class is not technique-based—it is about emotional expression, collaboration, and movement as a language of the soul.

What should my child wear?

Comfortable clothing they can move in freely (e.g. leggings, soft pants, t-shirts). Bare feet or non-slip socks are perfect. No special attire is required.

What materials are provided?

All watercolor supplies, story-making tools, and performance props or costume accents are provided and included in the class fee.

Will there be a performance?

Yes. The final session will feature a low-pressure, student-created performance titled A Farewell to Autumn. It will take place on January 9, 2026 and serve as a celebration of their creative journey.

What if my child is shy or slow to warm up?

This class is designed with gentleness and safety in mind. We honor each child’s pace. Many children blossom gradually as they find their place in the story and the group.

How many children are in each class?

Classes are capped at 10–12 students to ensure a nurturing, individualized environment where every voice and movement matters.

What kind of stories will they create?

The stories emerge from the children’s artwork and imagination. Guided by classical music and seasonal themes, they often include elements of nature, transformation, friendship, and emotion.

Who teaches the class?

The class is led by Becca Sutter, a movement educator, choreographer, and Waldorf-inspired teaching artist with over 20 years of experience designing curriculum and guiding creative learning spaces for children.
