Community Partner Sites
In addition to providing classes at our arts and youth development center, Moving in the Spirit delivers our programs to children at partner organizations throughout Metro Atlanta, including schools, homeless shelters, and recreation centers.
Through these partnerships, our teaching artists and dance/movement therapists assist children’s explorations of their self-awareness, self-confidence, emotional regulation, empathy, and social skills. Dance becomes a platform where both the physical and psychological wellness of a child can thrive through safety, support, and connection.
2023-2024 Community Partners:
Easterseals provides disability and community services through early childhood education programs.
The Boyce Ansley School provides tuition-free private schooling to children experiencing homelessness.
The City of Atlanta’s Coan Park Therapeutic Recreation Center provides an inclusive afterschool program for children between the ages of 5-17 with mild to moderate disabilities.
