We Hope You Dance Scholarship

The We Hope You Dance Scholarship was founded in 2022 to offer dance scholarships to children with developmental disabilities. This scholarship aims to help alleviate some of the financial challenges that come with raising a child who has developmental disabilities. Starting in the Fall 2024 season, the Fisher Family has expanded this scholarship to include all members of the Inspiration Dance Family.

Why is the scholarship limited to participants at the Inspiration Dance Studio? The Fisher children, Olivia and Lukas, both began dancing there at the age of three. Olivia has explored all dance styles, is a member of Senior Company and the Dancepiration Competition Team. Lukas, the Fisher’s special guy, previously participated in the PT Facilitated dance class and is now enjoying Hip Hop class. He loves to dance and sing to any music that’s playing.

Inspiration Dance Studio stands out as the ONLY studio in McHenry County that provides PT Facilitated classes, setting it apart from other local options. The unique approach not only enhances the dancers' physical abilities but also ensures they receive specialized attention for optimal performance and injury prevention. Furthermore, the studio fosters a close-knit community where members, like the Fishers, have formed lasting friendships. These connections have enriched their lives beyond dance, creating a supportive and encouraging environment for all participants. The combination of exceptional classes and a welcoming community makes Inspiration Dance Studio a truly special place.
