I think the key here is to present any "children's classes" in a
positive way. Younger children can be disruptive in a class, and a
class labeled with "younger children welcome" tells parents that the
teacher of that class is prepared to work with younger children. This
may make it more likely that parents who are unsure whether their
children will be able to attend a general dance class without being
disruptive will bring them. It also gives adults who do not want to be
in such a class a chance to work their schedule around it. I don't
foresee there being enough of these classes to take away from the rest
of the dance schedule, and it gives a good opportunity to expose
children to dancing that otherwise may not have had such an opportunity.
