Triangle DanceWheels

EVERYONE CAN DANCE!

Triangle DanceWheels brings wheelchair ballroom and Latin dancing to the disabled community. Unlike other recreational programs for the disabled, like tennis, basketball, or hand-cycling, wheelchair dancing integrates disabled and able-bodied individuals in competitive venues as well as general recreation.

Wheelchair dancers can learn to dance socially or competitively in highly creative and professional settings along with their able-bodied partners. This activity crosses the boundaries of age, gender, and physical ability and includes individuals using manual or power chairs with varying levels of ability. Dance centers will offer a wide variety of dance lessions, including Latin, Smooth, and Club dancing.

The classes are offered at Sanderson High School on Tuesdays for 8 weeks at $95/ person. Melanie Dale is the Master Instructor and can be reached at 919-781-6868.
