Partner dance changes lives
Heart of Dance delivers the physical, mental, and emotional benefits of partner dance to those who wouldn’t otherwise have the opportunity to experience them. Dancing Classrooms, our foundational program, teaches crucial life skills like confidence, cultural awareness, conflict resolution and gender respect through the lens of partner dance in schools across Minnesota. In classrooms of fifth and eighth graders, we engage students with these concepts at an age proven to have the greatest impact.
Partner dance leads to confidence, self-expression, joyful movement, discipline, human connection, and more. Through partner dance, Heart of Dance is helping people discover all they can be.
