SUMMARY:Elements Dance Class (Inclusive)
DESCRIPTION:Art Spark Dance’s Elements class is a once a month dance class that is open to everyone\, with or without disabilities\, to explore and develop their own movement style.\n\nLed by professional dance educators\, the class offers a welcoming and supportive environment where you can discover the joy of dance. In this class\, we will be studying dance improvisation\, a structured form of movement that is less technically rigid.\n\nImprovisation allows dancers to explore and create in the moment. Movement material will be developed through creative explorations\, including body mapping using levels\, shapes\, and dynamic frameworks and our everyday life topics. The goal is to empower you to find your own language of movement\, embracing your individuality and creativity. No prior knowledge or experience is needed\, everyone is welcome.\n\n\n\nJoin us to move\, connect\, and enjoy dance in a space where everyone is welcomed and valued. The class takes place every 3rd Saturday of the month from 2 to 4 PM at the Rosedale School\, located at 7505 Silvercrest Dr\, Austin\, TX 78757.\n\nThere is no registration required\, and the fee is on a sliding scale from $5 to $20; however\, no one will be turned away for lack of funds.  \n\nFor questions email dance@artsparktx.org or call 512-454-9912

SUMMARY:Inclusive Dance Teaching with DanceAbility
DESCRIPTION:Organized by Art Spark Texas (Art Spark Dance)\nSpecial thanks to Rosedale Foundation for making this professional learning opportunity possible\nSaturday\, February 28\, 2026 | 4:00–6:00 PM\n**Rosedale School (Austin\, TX) \nWhat is DanceAbility?\nAs dance educators\, we believe integrated dance can reduce isolation and support self-expression and personal growth for people of all abilities. DanceAbility is an improvisation-based method that supports artistic exploration between people with and without disabilities. Through dance and movement\, people from diverse backgrounds practice the art of being together—building connection and strengthening more inclusive communities. \nDanceAbility cultivates common ground for creative expression with equal agency and representation. Movement material is drawn from the group present in the room\, so no one is isolated or singled out. The method supports self-empowerment by offering ways for each person to participate fully and make creative choices—while also respecting personal limits. \nCore principles you’ll learn: Sensation • Relationship • Time • Design\n(often described as self\, others\, and community in motion) \nWhat you’ll leave with: Practical\, adaptable DanceAbility exercises you can use right away\, Tools for inclusive improvisation\, partnering\, and facilitation\, Strategies that support participation for people of all abilities \nWho should attend: Dance educators • teaching artists • classroom teachers • therapists • movement facilitators • anyone curious about inclusive dance practice \nRegister here: https://forms.gle/oB9q7eG6g446B8gh7\nQuestions / Access requests: dance@artsparktx.org
