Today marks the anniversary of the Americans with Disabilities Act, signed into law on July 26, 1990. This Disability Pride Month, we're celebrating the strength, creativity, and joy that students and educators with disabilities bring to our classrooms and our dance floors.

At Dancing Classrooms, we believe every student deserves the chance to move, connect, and shine. Inclusion isn't an afterthought in our programming, it's part of who we are.

Grace and respect look different for every dancer and that's exactly the point.

Summer break for students, but not for us!

Two weeks ago we welcomed a new group of Teaching Artists into the Dancing Classrooms community through our annual DCI training, learning not just the steps of the Dulaine Method, but the philosophy behind it.

One new DCI member, Morgan, put it perfectly: "Dance is a lesson in social justice and equity... ballroom dancing can be a great equalizer."

This year's students are in for something special.
