Dance for All Bodies
Dancing lifts you in the air, makes you want to fly, makes you feel like you’re the only person in the world.. sounds familiar? Yes, dancers do feel that way, and famous poets have wonderfully put these emotions into words.
Hello there! Thank you for your interest in taking a dance class with
Dance for All Bodies. As we close out the year, the DfAB Team, namely our Board and ED,
have been ruminating on these foundational statements. As we imagine
what DfAB's future could be, the question of how can we best serve our
community has come up repeatedly. To begin answering that question, we
humbly come to you asking for your genuine insight, opinions, and
feelings on DfAB's current programming. Please share your responses
through the DfAB
Community Survey , which is short and anonymous. We appreciate your input immensely.
Additionally, the DfAB Board and ED have decided that our wisest next
step is to take a hiatus, an extended hibernation if you will, for the
next 3 months. This hiatus is for our leadership team to assess where
DfAB is in its trajectory and strategize where we'd like to go next,
while continuing to prioritize dismantling ableism inside and outside of
the virtual dance room. During this hiatus, we will sit with your survey
responses and use them to guide us forward. At this time, the best way
you can support us is to fill out the Community Survey (linked above as
well) or donate to support us administratively during the hiatus.
This hiatus will be effective beginning on December 21, after our final
class of the year on December 20. You can reach us at
[email protected]. If you have direct questions or concerns
about the hiatus, you can message the DfAB Board at
[email protected].
We've so enjoyed connecting with you through dance this year and we hope
to be in April 2023 with our community classes and more.
