Improv is so much fun, but there are techniques/processes/ideas to be developed just like all styles of dance/creation of choreography. Dancers utilize improv in the classroom setting to develop their individual artistry/style and to really work on expanding movement qualities, dynamics, performance and musicality. Improv also finds its way into dance competitions and we want to make sure that all WBDC dancers have an option to prepare for these events if they ever chose to participate. Please see below for the various Improv class options throughout the year and your dancer is welcome to register for zero or all of them online HERE !

This is an adaptive dance class environment for children and young adults with special needs that provides an opportunity to enjoy a class just for them! Throughout classes, dancers will learn all types of dance in a fun, encouraging atmosphere. WBDC’s goal is for all dancers to gain confidence, coordination, strength and a sense of belonging through this program. We also focus on socialization; not only with their peers and teachers, but with their Adaptive Dance Friends.

Inspired by one of our, and we think almost everyone’s, favorite soundtracks….we can’t wait to create the WBDC version! As did “One Big Party”, “On The Catwalk”, “Cats”, “Hero”, “Queen”, “Under The WBDCea” and all the previous productions, it will have a fantastic music mix, special costumes, lots of dance styles in the choreography and a lot of creativity! Company dancers (Sorry Mini Company, just a bit too young!) are welcome to sign-up. Rehearsals will be on Saturdays from 9:45-10:45am . During the creation process, there may be some weeks when not all of Production needs to be in attendance. Once registration is complete, we will update any weeks that dancers do not need to be present. Production will compete at all 4 regionals, nationals and will perform in most recitals. January 18, 2026 is the mandatory production rehearsal and will be located at Lakeaires Elementary School in White Bear Lake.
