OUR STORY!

During the pandemic, All About Dance needed to quickly pivot to ensure its dancers were able to continue pursuing their passion for dance and its teachers were able to continue earning a living wage.  During this process, the leadership team had an “aha” moment.  We realized that, in order to fulfill AAD’s parallel dreams of giving every kid a chance to dance & supporting those who choose to pursue a career in dance, we needed to create an organization that could raise the funds necessary to turn these dreams into a reality.   


Our desire to provide opportunities in dance during the full cycle of a dancer’s journey...


  1. Increasing access to young children who would otherwise not be exposed to dance,
  2. Assisting budding artists who have the passion to become skilled dancers with their families’ inability to afford our company programs, and
  3. Strengthening AAD’s influence as an advocate and support system for those pursuing dance as their professional field


...will only be fully realized through the financial support of our generous friends.  Thus, Beyond The Dance Floor was born.   We look forward to growing this organization to be a leader within the Chicago dance community
