PARTICIPANT TESTIMONIES
"I have learned more from this ballet class than I have learned from any of my doctors. I have found an increased range of motion in both my affected arm and ankle and now I walk with little to no limp!"
"I used to walk with a cane, and now I don’t need to anymore!"
"This class gives me something to look forward to every week. It's helped me with my balance, knee-tracking, and posture. I can tell it is so good for me. I've bought the ballet piano album so I can practice and now I'm just deciding between ordering leather or canvas ballet shoes for class!"
