Join us for a joyful, movement-filled hour designed primarily for individuals who are blind or have low vision! Taught by experienced dance instructor Robyn Hughes, this introductory ballet class focuses on body awareness, graceful movement, and creative expression. No prior dance experience is needed, just the ability to move your arms and legs comfortably.

Robyn will guide students through basic ballet positions and flowing routines with clear verbal instructions, while trained assistants provide optional physical guidance through gentle touch. This supportive and encouraging environment is perfect for anyone looking to explore movement in a new and inclusive way.

Registration is required, and the class will only be held if at least four students sign up. Class size is limited to ten participants to ensure personal attention and a safe, welcoming experience.

Let your body move, your spirit lift, and your creativity shine. Sign up today and try something new!
