Celebrating Every Ability Through Dance
Amanda’s Academy of Dance, LaCrosse Dance Centre, and The ARC of La Crosse are excited to partner on a new inclusive dance program for dancers ages 16 and up!
Amanda’s Academy of Dance, La Crosse Dance Centre, and The ARC of La Crosse have teamed up to create a fun, inclusive program for dancers ages 16 and up. This collaboration combines the strengths of both studios and the ARC’s dedication to supporting people of all abilities, creating a space where dancers can grow, learn, and express themselves in a fun and supportive environment.
The program is designed for dancers of all skill levels and abilities. Students will explore creative movement, ballet barre exercises, stretching, and a variety of dance styles, building essential skills while having fun. Classes are structured to encourage personal growth, teamwork, and confidence, and every dancer is welcome to participate at their own pace.
While performance opportunities are available for those who want them, the heart of the program is about connection, movement, and community. By bringing together resources, instructors, and students from multiple organizations, this partnership ensures that everyone has a chance to enjoy dance, try new things, and be part of an inclusive artistic community.
