Our Soaring Supporters Help Keep Our Dancers Flying On Their Wings
Bringing Dance to the Autisic Community
Many of our dancers have never been allowed to experience a “true” dance class. They are often regulated to being “the autistic dancer” They are often told to sit to the side and watch, or forced into “Creative Movement” class where they never learn dance.
Autistic Wings’ approach to teaching actual dance to our dancers in an enviroment designed for them is both game changing and expensive. Upper level dance classes cost $171 a month per dancer. Private lessons for those who need a little bit more one-on-one work cost $684 a month.
Our studio is 100% partial and full scholarship. Not a single dancer pays the full cost of tuition. Not a single dancer is ever turned away because they can’t afford dance classes. By joining the Soaring Supports you help us make sure we never have to turn a dancer away.
The Ribbon Guardian ($20)
Your $20 monthly gift provides a brand-new pack of ribbons. Ribbons seem to find their way into every single class at Autistic Wings. Every one of our dancers love them. For those with sensory needs, a fresh pack of ribbons is often the key to a successful and joyful class.
