What We Do

TEACHER TRAINING – Let’s Dance Kids! (LDK!) provides professional dance training at no cost to teachers, primarily in under-served communities and schools, to enable classroom instruction. Teachers attend weekly dance classes, and then teach their newly learned skills to their students during PE.

This training is conducted once weekly during the school year (August-June) at Imperial Beach Charter School/West Campus in the South Bay Union School District located in Imperial Beach, California. The class is taught by a certified ballroom dance instructor, and is paid for by Let’s Dance Kids!

FAMILY CAMPS – LDK! provides 2-hour group ballroom dance classes, held once a month during the school year at Imperial Beach Charter School/West Campus in the South Bay Union School District, located in Imperial Beach, California. These classes are taught by a certified ballroom dance instructor and are paid for by Let’s Dance Kids!

SHOW GROUP LESSONS – These are 1-hour small group lessons, offered weekly for 10-11 months of the year at Imperial Beach Charter School/West Campus in the South Bay Union School District, located in Imperial Beach, CA. These classes are taught by a certified ballroom dance instructor and are paid for by Let’s Dance Kids!

SCHOOL SITE COACHING – Volunteer “coaches,” who participate in the teacher training, assist teachers in their classrooms who are new to Let’s Dance Kids!

CLOTHING FOR SHOWCASES AND SPECIAL EVENTS– Appropriate clothing is provided to students referred by teachers and/or parents when formal clothing is required for a performance. This might include dress pants, shirt, tie, and shoes for boys, and a dress, skirt and blouse, and shoes for girls. This clothing is loaned to students for a particular event, then returned and maintained as a wardrobe for use each year. All clothing is paid for by Let’s Dance Kids!
