Kids Classes

"We love our daughter's ballet class, the instructor, and the LP location. I wish there were more classes so my daughter could grow with the program!"

Kids Classes

Our kids and adult movement classes are rooted in a values approach. Our Teaching Artists discuss consent and offer accommodations and modifications judgment-free. Every student has autonomy. They can opt out of any photos or videos, and can take breaks when they need. There is no dress code. Students can wear whatever they feel is comfortable and safe, and are allowed to express their own individuality. We serve families, community members, and professional dancers year-round and periodically provide intensive study at other locations through workshops and residencies.

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

DanceWear Share Library

The DanceWear Share Library is a resource for free dance apparel, shoes, and supplies for the community.

We are incredibly grateful for the outpouring of support from our community. As of now, we have reached our capacity and are no longer accepting new donations of items. We are accepting monetary donations to keep the library active, as we distribute our overflowing backstock.
