Spears teaches children's dance classes

Britney Spears has been teaching children's dance classes in LA, say reports.

She has been giving the lessons voluntarily at the Millennium Dance Complex, according to America's OK! magazine.

Spears reportedly showed a group of kids, aged from four to nine, a range of dance maneuvers such as 'the fish', 'the swim' and 'the choo-choo train'.

Maya Meek, a parent of one of the children, said: "My son didn't really know who Britney was, though he dances to all of her music.

"So when I told him, 'This is the lady who makes all the songs you like', he got very excited!"

A source added: "When Britney first arrived she went up to each child and asked them their name and whether they liked Madonna, because that was the song they would be dancing to this evening."
