  • Dance and Wellness Program

    When you get into dance frame and look directly into your partner's eyes, you understand them at a different level. Overcoming divisions of race, culture, and opportunity, in Dancing Classrooms everybody dances with everybody and students learn to work together with people who are different from themselves. Third through eighth graders continue to tackle this challenge while discovering more about themselves and connecting with others. More than dance steps, we're seeing confidence, gender and culture respect, teamwork, conflict resolution, and more. Both educators and parents reported increased confidence, peer respect, and lessening of behavior issues as a result of students' participation in the program. 83% of educators saw positive changes in the way their students treated each other, 70% of parents noticed positive changes in how their child felt about themself, and 70% of teachers noticed a positive change in their classroom environment. We launched our new senior adult wellness program three years ago. We have groups of senior adults coming together to experience the healing combination of music and movement to strengthen balance and cognitive focus, while improving physical strength and stamina, and increasing social connections.
