ADAPTIVE DANCE DIVISION
ADAPTIVE DANCE DIVISION
Delaware Dance Company’s Adaptive Division welcomes students with disabilities and provides a supportive environment where dancers are encouraged to explore freedom of movement, creativity, and self-expression through dance.
Classes are designed to meet each dancer where they are, honoring individual abilities while fostering confidence, coordination, and a positive relationship with movement. Instruction is flexible and responsive, allowing every student to participate meaningfully in class.
No prior dance experience is required.
Our Commitment
We believe that dance should be accessible to all. The Adaptive Division reflects our commitment to inclusion, creativity, and providing meaningful dance experiences for every student.
