Canucks Autism Network Creative Dance

The Canucks Autism Network Creative Dance program provides engaging, weekly creative dance classes to children ages 7-12.

The Canucks Autism Network (CAN) Arts Umbrella Creative Dance program offers engaging weekly classes designed to foster both artistic and personal growth.

Arts Umbrella and CAN staff collaborate in the classroom to create a safe, supportive environment, using tools like visual cues and open communication to help students build trust, confidence, and meaningful relationships. Students are encouraged to explore movement at their own pace while developing comfort in their bodies. Through dance-based exercises and games, participants discover new ways to express themselves, enhance physical awareness, and experience the joy of dance in an inclusive, empowering setting.
