The Yes, You Can Dance! Special Needs Ballroom Exhibition Team performed to an audience of 300+ at the PACC Fashion Show event at Rivers Casino last Sunday, April 28th.

Special Needs Ballroom Program Director, Chris Roth proudly poses with the team.

Our team composed of 6 dancers and 6 volunteer dance mentors had been practicing a lot, spending many hours at Steel City Ballroom rehearsing their Waltz Routine to the song “Rainbow Connection.” But their hard work certainly paid off! The team performed to a standing ovation, and many audience members were so moved by the performance that tears filled their eyes.
