Special Kids Dance & Performing Arts is a nonprofit organization that offers dance instruction and performing art programs to kids and young adults with special needs. We welcome kids of all abilities although our programs are designed for kids with special needs because our children learn at a slower pace and we understand that. Founder, Lisa Fultz is a parent of a child with Down syndrome who believes we should enhance our child's lives and help them be the best they can be and that is why we want to make your child feel special! Classes available: Beginner Ballet & Tap, Tap & Hip-Hop, Tae Kwon Do. Hopefully we will have vocal, drama, and music coming soon. |
