More than a Dance Class
We are excited to invite dancers with disabilities to join New Haven Ballet’s Shared Ability program, a weekly inclusive dance class that celebrates creativity and connection.
Shared Ability is a welcoming, wheelchair-accessible program for children and young adults with disabilities, including Autism Spectrum Disorder, Down syndrome, cerebral palsy, and other physical or developmental challenges. Classes are led by teaching artist Kerry Kincy, who uses dance to build confidence and encourage communication.
What makes this program truly special is the shared goal: dancers work together throughout the spring toward a final performance at the Shubert Theater in New Haven. It is the only dance program of its kind in our community to offer this professional stage experience.
Classes meet Sundays from 12:00–1:00 pm, beginning February 1.
Families often tell us this program offers more than dance. It’s a place to belong and to share the experience of movement in a safe and supportive environment.
We would love to welcome you into our Shared Ability community.
