Misty's Dance Unlimited Darby's Dancers Application Form 2019-20
Thank you for your interest in the Darby’s Dancers program at Misty’s Dance Unlimited. Darby’s Dancers is a 501(c)(3) organization founded by the parents of Darby Jones of Huntsville, Alabama. Darby’s Dancers provides an opportunity for children with special needs to participate in the performing arts through dance education. Charitable donations to “A Chance to Dance” 501(c)(3) provide the funding for Darby’s Dancers at Misty’s Dance Unlimited (MDU).
   
At once-a-week classes, Darby's Dancers learn various styles of dance in a fun, encouraging atmosphere. Dancers in the program gain confidence, coordination, strength and lifelong friends, all while feeling like a star.  DD also provides volunteer opportunities for teens. Our student volunteers learn important lessons in responsibility and friendship by providing one-on-one assistance to each dancer.
   
DD classes are taught by Miss Denise Meyer and take place in donated studio space at Misty’s Dance Unlimited. The charitable contributions of youth volunteers, dance instructors, community dance studios and local businesses allow DD to provide dance classes, classroom attire and recital costumes to special needs dancers at no cost to their parents.
 
2019-20 Darby’s Dancers Classes will be held on Fridays:
 5:30-6:00 PM - Younger Group (Ages 3-7)
 6:15-6:45 PM - Older Group (Ages 8+)

Classes begin on Friday, Sept. 27, 2019. Dancers will meet their buddy and get fitted for classroom attire and shoes.

The season ends with a Spring Recital performance in May 2020.

If you are interested in enrolling your child in the Darby’s Dancers program, please complete the application below with as much detail as possible.  We will use this information to partner our buddies with your dancer and for our team to review as we prepare for your dancer.  Let us know how we can make this a success for your child.  We will do our best to include these elements in our coaching plans for your dancer.

Required
Please check any of the following items that apply to your dancer:
Middle and High School Age Assistants/Buddies
Our middle and high school age assistants/buddies are usually (but not mandatory) accomplished dancers who want to share what they love with your dancer. They will typically help with the following areas: help dancers stand, help with focus & following directions, help with safety issues related to stability, encourage verbally and with praise or hugs. If care is needed beyond this level, we will meet to see how we can work together to address needs.

Students must be able to exhibit basic communication skills (dancers can be non-verbal, just need to be able to communicate at a basic level). Students need to exhibit appropriate social behavior and general self-control that would be expected for their age with expected developmental disabilities. We are not trained special education experts and are not equipped to work with all students including severe discipline problems or children with difficult medical care. We will seek to provide dance education to as many children as possible. Your child’s safety is of the utmost importance to us. If for any reason, you have concerns regarding the safety/treatment of your child, please notify the dance instructor, program coordinator and studio owner immediately.

By checking yes below, I am acknowledging that I have read and understand the information above pertaining to middle and high school age assistants/buddies. *
