Welcome to Inspira Dance
Our mission: Integrating dance into all our public schools, and building communities through dance.
Who We Are
Inspira Dance makes dance accessible to every student by bringing high-quality programs into public schools. Funded through our vibrant community dance events, these programs connect students with professional instructors, cultural history, and the joy of performance.
Money should never be a barrier to dance—and thanks to our model, it isn’t. Students learn, grow, and thrive, while staying connected to a larger community of dancers long after graduation.
