Boulder Ballet is partnering with Children's Hospital to offer a medically supervised Adaptive Dance program designed for youth with cognitive and physical challenges. The Adaptive Dance program provides up to ten special needs students the chance to be in dance classes that teach a creative and contemporary style of dance for students to explore. The children perform to their own abilities and enjoy the physical and emotional freedom of movement to music.
Physicians and instructors assist the students in each class. Adaptive Dance classes take place in the Boulder Ballet studios in the Dairy ARTS Center, 2590 Walnut Street, Boulder.
STUDENT REGISTRATION
Boulder Ballet is able to offer these classes at no cost through a generous grant from the Boulder Arts Commission. There is a $25 registration fee for this program. Pay registration here.
Financial assistance is available for those in need, contact Rain via bbprograms@boulderballet.org.
