DANCERS WITH DISABILITIES
While KDO programs are inclusive and serve children of all abilities, the Dancers with Disabilities programs offer further opportunities specifically designed for children with disabilities to allow them to dance, grow, and succeed in a safe and supportive environment. “It’s really much bigger than just learning dance steps. It’s really about improving children’s lives, their social abilities and setting them up for success in the future” – Michael Johnson, Founding Director of Kids Dance Outreach.
ADAPTIVE DANCE
KDO Adaptive Dance Class gives children ages 7 – 12 with Down syndrome the opportunity to develop social, emotional, and physical skills in a safe environment through the art of dance. This is much more than just about learning dance steps. The skills learned will enable students to be successful in the future. Our programs improve focus, listening skills, discipline, social abilities, physicality, and ultimately self-confidence, leading to success in school and opening more opportunities later in life.
