Our Well-Dance All-Abilities Program is open to everyone and is designed to assist people in developing and using their leisure time in ways that enrich their lives and health. Our goal is to provide opportunity to all people regardless of their ability levels, socio-economic status, gender or ethnicity.
Our philosophy is of inclusion, sharing experiences together and celebrating diversity while developing a dance community that welcomes everyone to positive recreational experiences.

NOTE: Group and foster home staff must stay to assist their participants in the class/dance. Our staff is only able to supervise participants who are in the actual dance room and is unable to provide assistance to participants who need close supervision or personal care. Facility staff and parents get in free but donations are happily accepted to help with the costs.
