Please join us for our Inclusive Mixed Ability Dance Class! The DanceAbility method will be used to learn principles of improvisational dance for all people. The class offers an opportunity for self-expression, creativity, and builds self-esteem and confidence. Our goal is to create a culture of dance that eliminates isolation and builds community. We honor each person’s movement language. Participation is completely voluntary, and it is fun! *Programs for our Disability Community*
