Summary

San Francisco Ballet is launching a 6-week Adaptive Dance Pilot Program starting March 2026, aimed at children ages 5-7 with Down syndrome, autism spectrum disorder, and other disabilities. The program focuses on promoting creativity, expression, and physical development through joy-filled dance classes in a safe environment. Classes are capped at 8 students with a 2:1 teacher-to-student ratio to ensure quality support. Sessions will be held on Saturday afternoons, and the tuition is $250, with a $25 intake application fee. Registration requires an intake interview with a ballet administrator to tailor support for each student.
