Description:

This dance class is designed for elementary and middle schoolers with any intellectual, developmental, or sensory impairments! Our beginner-level dance and movement classes currently take place through Zoom and provide a fun outlet for children to let out energy and meet new people. The free class is also designed to help refine and improve things like motor skills, concentration, social/communication abilities, and general happiness. Dance and movement therapy has been proven to have significant benefits for children with disabilities; it gives the children an immersive experience where they are challenged to carefully observe and imitate the movements of the instructor or based on the music. This allows the children to develop greater awareness over themselves, their surroundings, as well as other people.
