After School Program

Welcome to our Japanese After School Program designed exclusively for 3 to 5-year-old children (children born between 2018 and 2020)! Our program provides a fun and nurturing environment where children can explore their interests and develop essential skills through various classes, including Pre-ballet, Hiragana, Shodo, Taiso, Dance, Art, and Kids Yoga. All of our After School classes are held in Japanese and are open to all children who are able to understand the classroom instruction in Japanese. Our After School classes are a fun exploration of creativity where young minds blossom and friendships flourish. The classes are for 45 minutes. However, extended care is also available until 6 pm. A wholesome homemade snack is included in each class. Enroll your child today to enjoy learning with the added benefit of cultural enrichment!
