PHOENIX â Children and teens with Down syndrome are learning and developing their dance skills through a unique program.
Alexandra Papazian, Ballet Arizonaâs Education & Community Engagement Manager, says the organization saw a need in the community that could be filled with dance. âWe are an art form that was born in French Italian courts. It wasnât really brought to people until much later in its history. Even still, there are barriers that exist to participating in dance classes, Papazian said.
