Episode 13 - Empowering Dancers One Step at a Time

In this uplifting episode of Down Syndrome: 21st Perspectives, hosts Monique Johnson and Leigh Frillici welcome Cammie O’Hara, owner of The Dance Pointe, a studio dedicated to providing inclusive dance classes for individuals of all abilities. Cammie shares how her lifelong love of dance—and a gentle push from her daughter—sparked the creation of adaptive classes where students with Down Syndrome, Autism, Cerebral Palsy, and other disabilities can thrive. Her classes blend contemporary, ballet and lyrical styles, often set to Disney or popular songs that invite creativity, emotional expression, and joy. And...her classes are going virtual so kids with IDD across the country can take dance with her.
