Our Mission
The mission of A Chance to Dance is to improve the quality of life for young children through the art of ballet. We accomplish this by nurturing and enhancing each child’s well being and potential in a stimulating and creative environment. Providing affordable ballet instruction and free performance opportunity enable students to achieve success, realize their dreams, and enjoy dance for a life time.
In 2006 Artistic Director, Anne Beckert, founded the non-profit ballet program, "A Chance to Dance". Its' purpose would be to accommodate children of low- income families and welcome all children in the surrounding community. Since then local dance schools have donated numerous dance costumes to help support the programs efforts to keep performance opportunity free for our students. Each student is given the opportunity to perform at Medi Center nursing home in Neptune, at the Bradley Beach gazebo during Memorial Day weekend, and in a final recital held at a local elementary school.
Please visit our “Fundraisers” page for special offers that benefit both you and "A Chance to Dance".
Donations are tax deductable.
