How are our classes inclusive? Check out some of our strategies that help every dancer succeed in their own way ✨

We use tools like:
⭐ Zones of Regulation poster ft. our awesome coaches!
⭐️ Class Expectations in Plain English
⭐ Visual class schedule on magnetic whiteboards
⭐️ Break systems
⭐ Star reward jars
⭐ Sticker reward charts
⭐️ Picture Exchange Communication System (PECS) cards on lanyards - designed by Karolyn Ferguson

These supports set our dancers up for success, help them understand expectations and communicate effectively.

Inclusion matters 💪

It is with broken hearts that we say goodbye and remember the life of our dancer and friend, Cara Williams 💗💜

We will always remember Cara’s kind heart, big smile, pink and purple pom poms, story telling, and the joy and happiness that she brought to all of us at All Abilities.

We extend our deepest condolences to Mark, Cara’s extended family, and everybody who loved her. In our thoughts and in our hearts, always.
