Celebrating 36 years, Ormao Dance nurtures connection, creativity, and confidence through a non-competitive school, a professional dance company, and community programs like Dance for Parkinson’s, Hillside Elder Dancers, and Hands Are for Holding®. We use movement and the artistry of dance to inspire belonging, well-being, and delight for people of all ages and abilities in our community.
At Ormao Dance, we nurture joy, connection, and expression through movement. We’re building a more compassionate and creative community where everyone—regardless of age, background, or ability—can belong, grow, and be inspired. Dance is how we come together, heal, and celebrate being human. Making Dances|Building Community
We are expanding access to dance through our student sponsorship program for all ages and launching Common Ground, a new multi-year dance collaboration to connect our community’s history and future through movement, ultimately encouraging participation, creativity, and connection.
In 2025, donors helped Ormao significantly increase our total unique human class experiences from 9,049 in 2024 to 13,806 in 2025 – a 52% increase!
