This is what inclusive ballroom looks like at the Adaptive Dance Sanctuary 🕺🏻💃🏻❤️ Preparing for a ballroom dance competition takes weeks of repetition, timing, dedication and heart. Watching Jack master his steps, refine his posture, and pour everything into his rehearsals shows the true power of inclusive, adaptive ballroom dance and the incredible strength of dancers in the autism community.

Let’s show Jack that an entire community is cheering in his corner! Leave a comment wishing him luck this weekend so we can show him before he competes✨👇🏼

Just a little behind-the-scenes glimpse of what bringing a dream to life really looks like 😂🪩

The chaos is temporary, but the impact we hope to make is lasting. Making ballroom accessible to all is worth every moment 🤍

If you met Jack in one of our last reels, here’s a little more of what he’s been working toward 💙

All that practice paid off at the Summit DanceSport Championship, where Jack took 1st in all his single dances, won the Junior 2 Smooth and Rhythm Multi-Dances, became the J2 6-Dance Champion, and won both of his Scholarship Events✨🏆

From practice to competition, it’s pretty special watching all that hard work come together on the dance floor. So proud of you, Jack 👏🏼

This is bigger than dance! 🤎 It’s about access, opportunity, and making space for people who’ve too often been left out

Ballroom dance has the power to build confidence, connection, and community, and those opportunities should be available to more people ✨

We want to help create a community where different physical, sensory, communication, and learning needs are understood and supported, so more people have the chance to participate, grow, and belong ✨🤍

Pulling our official 501(c)(3) approval letter out of the mailbox and bringing it straight into a room full of power tools and drywall dust… an absolute fever dream 😭💌 The Adaptive Dance Sanctuary Foundation is officially a recognized non-profit! I might be covered in concrete right now, but this vision is coming to life. Bellevue, we are getting so close to opening these doors! 🪩🛠️
