Dance Education That Moves Everyone Forward



Dance It Forward is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization providing dance education, performance opportunities, leadership development, and community outreach for dancers of all aspirations.

Finding a non-profit dance program that meets your child exactly where they are - and grows with them - shouldn't be difficult.

From first steps to center stage, Dance It Forward provides exceptional educational, performance, and leadership opportunities for dancers of every age and stage.

Whether your dancer dreams of dancing once a week, performing on stage, competing with a team, or pursuing collegiate or professional pathways, there is a place for them here.

We've helped thousands of dancers since 1971. We know every dancer is different - that's why we build a plan around yours.
