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 Sunday afternoon. This Training Session is mandatory and you must complete an application and background check release prior to attending the training. Sessions run for 10 weeks at our North and South Hills locations. Please call us with questions and visit www.yesyoucandance.org to complete your pre-training paperwork.

Attend the next training session and join the FUN! To register, email Lauren at lauren@yesyocuandance.org or call her at 412.341-1286.
