Dance-It-Out!

Gentle movement and meditation soothe and center as listeners “connect with this charming character and her vivid imagination”...Young listeners will love the interactive component of this series and will feel like a calm princess by the end. (Reedsy)

Petunia woke to yet another rainy day, and she feels particularly gloomy about being stuck inside. By letting ordinary objects and elements of her daily routine spark her imagination, she finds a happy calm she wants to share.

Throughout the Dance-It-Out! 12-book series, Ballerina Konora helps listeners connect with movement and focus the breath in quirky tales by an award-winning dance teacher, turned award-winning author, and her ballerina daughter.

Each Dance-It-Out story is an interactive kids’ storytelling adventure to ignite movement, joy, and imagination.

The Dance-It-Out movement journeys are ideal for dance, pre-ballet, creative movement, preschool, daycare, early learning, physical education, homeschool, kindergarten, or first-grade activities. The full collection features diverse characters. Audiobooks make a great gift for kids interested in dance, ballet, gymnastics, or yoga, or reluctant listeners who enjoy getting up and moving around.

With kind characters, subtle life lessons, and a positive role model in Ballerina Konora, teachers love the kid-approved, ready-made, easy additions to curriculum and lesson planning. Children at home adore the stories that “young readers will return to again and again” (Reedsy).

In this volume, concepts include breathing, body part isolation/relaxation, energy, swinging, swaying, falling, qualities of movement, speed, and posture, and integrates with themes such as princesses, fairy tales, imagination, elephants, ice cream, boats, gardens, flowers, or cats.
