About GLOBAL’s Be Beautiful Be Yourself Dance Program with the Sie Center for Down Syndrome and the Colorado Ballet
The Be Beautiful Be Yourself Dance program is comprised of three class groups (based on experience) serving individuals with Down syndrome ages 5-17. This program is a fun and dynamic collaboration between GLOBAL, the Colorado Ballet, and the Sie Center for Down Syndrome at Children’s Hospital Colorado. Every year, our dancers learn the fundamentals of ballet. Program instructors include the Sie Center’s world-renowned physical therapist and Down syndrome expert, Patricia C. Winders, alongside instructors and professional dancers from the Colorado Ballet. The program runs for 16 weeks at the Colorado Ballet, with each session culminating in seasonal recitals with over 200 friends, family, and supporters in attendance. At the end of every year, two of our dancers are chosen to perform in the Colorado Ballet’s official production of The Nutcracker!
