Thrive Adaptive Dance Class
For ages 3 - 14
What is Thrive (An Adaptive Dance Class)?
Thrive is Bloom Dance Studio’s classroom environment that is specially designed for students who may not excel in a typical classroom environment. Thrive has included dancers with Down’s Syndrome, Autism Spectrum Disorder, and other special needs.
Why AN Adaptive Dance Class?
At Bloom Dance Studio, we believe there is a place for everyone to participate in dance. We love to have all children in our classroom. For some children a typical classroom setting is not the best fit.
This is why we have created an Adaptive Dance Class to accommodate all needs with one-on-one instruction for each student.
When and Where will THRIVE Dance Classes take place?
NEW this year, we are offering a Thrive Summer Camp. What a fun way to spend a week of your summer! Thrive Camp includes a full week of movement, creativity, and friendship.

Come discover the joy of dance and friendship with us this summer!

Thrive Class trial:
We offer one free trial class for first-time families to be able to gauge if this class will be a good fit for your student. We understand this may be a new environment for your student and we want to give families an opportunity to see if their student will “thrive” before committing to the entire session.

About Thrive Dance Class:
Our Thrive Dance Class will be taught by one Bloom Instructor and will be assisted by volunteers who are current college students pursuing a degree in Special Education, Speech-Language Pathology, Occupational Therapy, Physical Therapy, or other similar fields of study.
These volunteers are background checked and will work one-on-one with your child to help them adapt the dance moves however is best for them.
If you have a child with special needs who would be interested in joining our Adaptive Dance Class, we would be so excited to have them!
What will the Thrive Dance Class Include?
Like a typical dance class, everyone will sit in a circle to go over our Bloom rules, do introductions, stretch, and participate in some fun dance songs. Next, we will learn dance steps and work on fun dance routines to music.
During class, we also will practice listening to music and instructions, explore movement with props, and make friends with classmates.
Each of the activities in class will be adapted to each individual dancer and their unique abilities.
If you are unsure if your child would do better in a typical setting versus the adaptive classroom, please contact us (support@danceatbloom.com) so we can find the best class for your child.
