Accessible Classes

“Dance is bigger than the physical body. Think bigger than that. When you extend your arm, it doesn’t stop at the end of your fingers, because you’re dancing bigger than that. You’re dancing spirit.”

~ Judith Jamison

Here at Tap Fever Studios we believe that students, regardless of ability, should be integrated into our scheduled classes.  We have many opportunities for students with special needs to join classes (with an assistant if needed) as well as the option to hold private classes for a group that wishes to dance together.  Contact Larisa at Tap Fever for more info: 858-456-7301

Our Education:

KIT_logoTap Fever Studios instructors and board members receive ongoing training opportunities from a locally founded program called Kids Included Together.

Kids Included Together (KIT) specializes in providing best practices training for community–based organizations committed to including children with and without disabilities into their recreational, child development and youth development programs.

Utilizing a blended learning style with interactive eLearning components, KIT’s services are provided free of charge to its 63 affiliate organizations representing over 304 sites in San Diego County. Since its inception in 1997, Kids Included Together (KIT) has trained over 25,000 youth providers in the best practices of inclusion. Over 15,000 children with disabilities have been co–enrolled with over 265,000 children without disabilities at KIT affiliate sites. 72% of KIT’s organizational budget is allocated to program expenses.

Kids Included Together (KIT) is a registered 501(c)(3) non–profit organization founded in San Diego, California in 1997. The mission of Kids Included Together (KIT) is to provide learning opportunities that support recreation, child development and youth enrichment programs to include children with and without disabilities.

KIT’s goals are to enrich the lives of all who participate and to increase understanding and acceptance of disabilities as a natural part of life. We invite you to explore our site and learn more about our work with out–of–school time programs across the United States and internationally.
