The Journey of Innovation: Creating The Dance Map™
Message from Alex
It is with much pride that I move into the next realm of my career, contributing to the most important level of all industries - the foundation. My passion for inclusive education is a result of the impact left by those who found creative ways to make learning accessible to me in my early childhood.
This product is more than just a culmination of efforts; it's a testament to my goal of reshaping learning environments to be adaptive and inclusive of all capabilities, creating positive outcomes that extend beyond gross motor skills, retention, and creative movement. It's about unlocking channels of learning that guide children towards a more confident sense of self, fostering success not just on the mat but in every facet of their lives.
Whether it's through vibrant visuals, engaging audio cues, or hands-on guidance, The Dance Map is an invitation to a world where every child has the chance to be seen, heard, and empowered to thrive through adaptive and inclusive learning. A place where you never have to think twice about showing your heart or your smile!
My career unfolded unexpectedly, into a space of incredible opportunities and unforgettable experiences. Be it on movie sets, in foreign countries, within the vibrant energy of a sold out sports arena, or simply in a ballroom filled with excited dancers, those moments are ingrained in my memory to keep forever. Yet, when I reminisce about those defining moments, I am taken back to my early years as a gymnast, where I was lucky enough to fall in love with the learning process through guided instruction.
My dream is to leave a mark in the world. The Dance Map is my personal commitment to building an inclusive learning space that empowers generations of teachers and students to come.

WHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING
Melissa Semmer
Owner of Prodigy Dance Company - San Diego, CA
"I was lucky enough to be the first studio to implement this life changing tool into my business. For the past three years, The Dance Map has been an absolute game-changer in building up my programming for Parent & Me classes and up. Its impact extends beyond instruction, but has drastically improved my student retention as parents witness their children not only learning but thriving with excitement and most importantly confidence! The sheer genius lies in its ability to cater to a 3 year old creative movement class simultaneously with a kinder-combo class in the next studio during the same hour. This versatility is revolutionary."
Annie Leese Thistle
CEO and Artistic Director of PAAM
“The Dance Map has revolutionized my dance studio by enhancing our curriculum for younger ages. It's a visual delight, providing clear directives and has become an invaluable asset to my instructors creating consistent teaching practices. The investment is well worth it, benefiting my youth programming for years to come. Highly recommended!

“This product enriches every class by engaging my students in a wholesome, fun and effective way. They facilitate learning by helping with attention, recall, and understanding but they are also a great way to quickly check for understanding in a room full of little learners. Not only are children practicing motor skills and kinesthetic learning but they are also practicing independence and autonomy. Having everything on one simple tool helps turn any space into a dance room!!
