Proudly, the Company has been recognized as ambassadors for both the arts and disability communities. Dancing Wheels has reached over 3 million people since its inception in 1980 with its award-winning lecture/performances, school assembly programs, master classes and mainstage concerts. Dancing Wheels also fosters the development of other physically integrated dance companies in America by providing guidance, examples and program development.
Expanding beyond the capabilities of most dance organizations, Dancing Wheels reaches populations that would not otherwise have opportunities to participate in the arts on an equal basis. Children and adults with disabilities work together with their non-disabled peers to achieve the benefits that only the arts can afford.
The School of Dancing Wheels, located in downtown Cleveland, is the only school in Ohio focused on fully physically integrated movement and dance classes. In our state-of-the-art accessible studios, children and adults with and without disabilities, students with economic challenges and senior citizens enjoy the dance experience.
The Dancing Wheels Company and staff members are unique in their passion to ensure full and equal access to dance. The School of Dancing Wheels’ teachers acknowledge individual abilities to encourage students to dance to the fullest potential. The full-time dance company is trained in ballet, modern and integrated partnering dance techniques with a steadfast belief in the mission of the Company.
To ensure our mission continues and that we remain at the forefront of integrated dance in America, we ask that you join us in keeping our vision alive for another 25 years.
Thank you in advance for you continued support.
