Our Programs
Veterans Program
Veterans go above and beyond to serve our country. They are resilient, honorable, loyal, and protective. They serve our country with Honor. While in combat, they can experience high intensity, fast action decision-making that may override their higher cognitive functioning. These experiences scientifically lock the brain into a paralysis state that effects the regular living motor skills, therefore causing different intensities of PTSD. In PTSD, a veteran may experience the world through a chronic state of hyper-arousal. Through Dancing and MOVEment it empowers our veterans to find a mind-body connection and internal control. Dance can be used as a modality that allows one to be in the present and focus on the now. Bringing a body and mind to cognitive awareness, grounded in present experiences, and regulating arousal levels brings the nervous system to a state of balance.

At Risk Youth
Our At Risk Youth Program works with children and teens that come from foster care, low income housing, domestic violence and drug related homes. These types of environments are hard for a youth to grow into adulthood successfully. MOVE provides a happy escape where we spread joy, happinees and healing through the art form of dance. Using Dance as a form of therapy these youth grow their self esteem and feel a a sense of love and self worth. Dancing is a modality for these youth to grow and transition smoothly into successful young adults. Through active, innovative and productive behavior these youth are shown there is definitely new ways of living, all through the art of MOVEment!!
Stay Tune for our next AT Risk Youth Program in Spring 2019!!
Children with Disabilities
For children with disabilities finding activities with enjoyment for them may be far and few between. Some of their symptoms may include poor attention span, and difficulty interacting. Through the art form of dance MOVEment these children begin to grow their attention span, become body aware and start becoming comfortable with social interaction.
Dance also gives them a sense of expressing themselves with MOVEment and become aware of their happy and joy feelings. It's so beautiful to see a child grow in a period of one lesson.
Be part of this on going program as we partner up with amazing schools like The Help Group & Villa Esperanza Services Group
