Education & Classes

EMPOWERING BODIES SINCE 2004

“... I was thrilled to find Synapse Arts classes two years ago and my kids are attending their third session this winter at Loyola. I want them to experience the joy in the artistic expression of dance without being limited by antiquated notions of what a dancer looks like. ...I am grateful to Synapse Arts for providing this fun and enriching opportunity to them.”

Parent, 2023 Programming

Our Educational Programming

Dance With Synapse is a local outreach and education program which serves families and professional dancers year-round and periodically provides intensive study at other locations through workshops and residencies.

Current classes are taught at three locations: Loyola Park, Berger Park Cultural Center and Lincoln Park Cultural Center, where Synapse works as an Arts Partner in Residence with the Chicago Park District.
