Dancewave provides access to a community dance experience that encourages individuality and whole-person development throughout New York City and beyond.

Dancewaves Culture Model creates an inclusive environment for all ages, abilities, sexual orientations, racial and socio-economic backgrounds. Through our Culture Model we provide educational dance classes in all five boroughs. In FY20 we provided over 70 residences in various public schools and community centers. In addition, we also offer year round youth classes, pre-professional company classes and adult classes at our Dancewave Center in Gowanus, Brooklyn.
