“I believe that DanceAbility® goes beyond movement exploration and is, for many people their
first opportunity to define themselves in their own terms and see that this dance form,
like their lives, has many options and possibilities.”
- Susan Sygall,
Executive Director, Mobility International U.S.A.
The 2024DanceAbility
Teacher Certification Course!

Take your teaching practice to the next level!
Join DanceAbility Artistic Director and Master Trainer Alito Alessi in a 120-hour course designed to teach you the DanceAbility Method® of Inclusive Dance, and Best Practices for incorporating it into your own dance teaching practice.
In development since 1987, the DanceAbility Method® allows you to work with people of all abilities and disabilities to tear down the barriers to full participation in society through dance and creative movement. Using the Method® gives them improved self-esteem and provides a creative outlet through dance!
DanceAbility International’s mission is to dissolve barriers and connect people with and without disabilities through dance and movement. This mission is accomplished through classes, workshops and events for adults and children, performances, teacher trainings and educational materials for teachers of inclusive dance.
The work of Joint Forces Dance Company creates inclusive communities through dance.
