Opportunity Description:

The Dance Ability Movement creates opportunities for individuals of all abilities to experience the arts! Occupational Therapists and Dance Instructors, Mallory and Jade, have created The Dance Ability Movement as a way to provide inclusive and accessible programming in dance studios so that everyone can participate! More than connecting with our dancers, our volunteers play an important role in inspiring and helping them participate in our dance program to the best of their abilities. In The Dance Ability Movement, our volunteers come from a variety of backgrounds and dance experience is NOT a requirement. Volunteers are paired up 1:1 with a student or a small group of students and provide mentorship throughout the program. Besides receiving training when joining the team and at the beginning of each new season, volunteers are provided with strategies to assist in adapting the class to meet their student’s unique abilities.
