Adaptive Dance for Youth

This adaptive dance class is geared specifically towards children ages 7-18 years, who have diverse abilities. It is primarily for individuals who want to join a more traditional dance class setting, yet may have some challenges participating. It is designed to help bridge the gap between a movement class (like ConfiDANCE) and a regular type of dance class.

Children may be introduced to a variety of dance styles including jazz, modern, hip hop and tap in this class.

Parent/caregiver participation is not required.

Adaptive Dance for Youth is taught by Teaching Artist Sarah Jacobson.

Requirement: To ensure that this class is right for your participant, the participant should have attended a ConfiDANCE 1 or ConfiDANCE 2 class. Alternatively, parents/care providers may speak with Teaching Artist Sarah Jacobson to ensure eligibility for this class.

Tuition: ARTS for ALL Wisconsin offers two separate tuition options for participants, based on whether the participant receives funding from a fiscal agency or if costs are paid out of pocket. As you register, you will be prompted to choose the tuition option that works best for your participant.
