2 videos about DanceAbility are available:

-All Bodies Speak, 55 minutes, from 2000: 5 separate performance pieces by Joint Forces Dance Company, with disabled & non-disabled performers. Steve Paxton says of these dancers, "Extraordinary. Striking. The performers spirits light up their actions."

-Common Ground, 20 minutes, a documentary about a DanceAbility workshop. This won a Silver Apple in the Award in the National Educational Film & Video Festival & was a finalist in the American Film & Video Association Festival.
