At Heart of Dance there are so many exciting opportunities to support students, both in and out of the classroom. We’re always looking for more volunteers — check out some of our volunteer roles below!

Dance Volunteer

Support our Teaching Artists during lessons as a Dance Volunteer. You don't need to be a dancer to experience the joy of working with our students, young or young-at-heart! This is a time commitment of two lessons per week for ten weeks. Join in the fun!

Contact us for more information.

Classroom Dance Buddy

We need Professional ballroom dancers and high-level amateurs to visit our classrooms and demonstrate their skills as classroom Dance Buddies. As a Classroom Dance Buddy, you’ll visit a classroom once during the residency, talk about your dance journey, demonstrate dances with the Teaching Artist, and give the students feedback on their dancing. This is always one of the highlights of the program!
