Dance Mentor and Special Needs Ballroom Dancer

Like to dance? Want to learn? Our program relies upon an enthusiastic corps of volunteers to dance with our adult students with special needs in a group setting. No dance experience is necessary; we provide free training! Interested individuals must be able to participate in a high-energy one-hour class and be a physical support for their special needs dance partner while dancing. This is a really fun and rewarding way to spend an hour on a Saturday or Sunday afternoon. Orientation and a Dance Mentor Training Session are mandatory. Sessions run for 6 weeks and we simply ask that you commit to at least 4 classes in the series. Please call us for more information or to ask any questions you may have. We look forward to hearing from you and remember...Yes, You Can Dance!
