Inclusive Dance Outreach
Our Inclusive Dance Outreach Program provides dance training for children with Down Syndrome, Autism Spectrum Disorder and other specific needs as a means of celebrating all levels of ability.
Our Inclusive program is designed to include a series of 40-45 minute sessions exploring classical ballet fundamentals, jazz and contemporary dance, freestyle movement and guided improvisation. Participants also explore the creative process of choreography and are invited to perform with our professional contemporary dance company in our performances at the Lyric Theatre and Moondance Amphitheatre.
In-person programming is designed to accommodate a small group of 8-20 students.
We can offer in-person outdoor/indoor sessions or can also provide programming virtually via Zoom.
For best results, we suggest booking a series of eight or more sessions for your group.
FREE Inclusive Dance Outreach programming is available for public schools, made possible by grant funding provided by:
WHAS Crusade for Children, The National Endowment for the Arts, SouthArts, LexArts, Partners for Youth, Republic Bank, Child Care Council of Kentucky, Hudson-Ellis Foundation, Kentucky Arts Council, New Vista, Meijer, Marshall Pediatric Therapy and donors & sponsors who contribute to our annual fund campaign!
