Summer Adaptive Dance

Ages 8-13

Students will be introduced to a traditional ballet class in an open, supportive, and accessible environment.

Dancers will be introduced to beginner ballet steps both at the barre and center. Stretching, coordination, strength building, and musicality will be major components in the students’ dance education while continuing to support fine and gross motor skills and speech and language development, as well as sensory, visual and auditory processing skills. Class sizes are limited.
