DancEncounter is delighted to welcome Lain Avery on staff as of Fall 2014. Classes for individuals with Special Needs and Autism are being offered on Saturday afternoons within our home of dance.

Classes are 45 minutes long and students will be exposed to their favorite songs and music tunes while given a physical outlet in a therapeutic and fun learning environment. A class session will visit multiple styles including Ballet, Jazz, and Hiphop, and if desired we will introduce tap dance, for variety, but with consistency within its framework. Students also will sing songs, play games, practice vocals and percussions as we learn keeping time with rhythm. Students also will learn dance routines to be performed in our annual Christmas and Summer shows; most recently DancEsteem performed in the 2015 DancEncounter recital "Once Upon a Princess," as Super Mario, Luigi, and Princess Peach! In addition DancEsteem is excited to be offering the opportunity to perform at outside events, such as fairs, festivals, and competitions with our Performing Company, however this is NOT required.

Please call or email for class registration!

Class session is Subject to enrollment. Average cost of classes is $11.00 per class.
