The JAYDEN Foundation
Neurotypical and neurodivergent students are partnered and work together through weekly lessons and program showcases.
Why?
Because everyone deserves the opportunity to be seen for their abilities- not defined by their limitations.
Our lessons create opportunities for self-expression, confidence, connection, and belonging.
Through student partnerships and teacher training, we aim to change the narrative of neuro-divergency.
About JAYDance
Through ballroom dance, we help students strengthen the connection between the mind and body while building coordination, confidence, and physical ability. Each class is personalized to meet the student’s unique needs and help them carry their progress beyond the studio and into everyday life.
Our Vision
We believe that everybody, regardless of ability, can be positively influenced by the transformative power of dance, music, and movement. Learn more about the connection that launched this project and why we do what we do.
