Our Mission and Values

Empowering Generations

Join Our Movement

Who We Are

     The Leap is a non-profit organization and scholarship program dedicated to providing individuals of all ages the opportunity to experience the benefits of movement. The Leap’s mission is more than to simply be a movement-based program. Since the beginning of Leaping Into Wholeness: The Benefit of Movement in 2022 we have been committed to creating opportunities for young children to thrive and make a difference in the world as the next generations of leaders. As our program took off as a dance club offered throughout Whitehall District Schools, we have since developed teaching and choreography availability, scholarships, and partnerships with local businesses and national organizations as we promote opportunity, scholarship, inclusivity, and empowerment. In our expansion, we are touching lives of all ages, including our youth, older adults, seniors, those with physical, cognitive, and neurodegenerative diseases and health conditions while targeting individuals from economically challenged homes. Our mission is to supply opportunity and mentorship that benefits an individual’s quality of life through motivating and empowering them to achieve their greatest potential while providing welcoming and nurturing environments. By rendering an obtainable and uplifting  program that encourages individuals to engage in self-advocacy by mindfully participating in fulfilling activities across social media, YouTube, the web, and face-to-face, displaying inclusivity, The Leap is continuing its expansion across the country. Join us in our mission to change lives!

Donations 

With the assistance of private, individual donations to The Leap, we are opening new doors by providing individuals of all ages with movement-based opportunties and scholarships to students K-12 across the country. We also collect athletic, activity-specific attire and equipment to ensure all students are fully prepared to participate when starting their activity. Because of your donations, we are able to continue providing scholarships to students K-12 throughout the country. Click on "Donations" in the heading above to donate!

Scholarships

Thanks to our partnerships, donations, and fundraising, students K-12 across the country have the opportunity to apply for the Leaping Into Wholeness Scholarship to help further or begin their training in any movement-based activity and allow them to grow as individuals. These scholarships are designed for students in need of financial aid who wouldn't have the ability to participate otherwise. In addition to the Leaping Into Wholeness scholarship, we partner with Relevé Dance Studio to provide full, year-round tuition ($1000) to one (currently enrolled or new) student each year. Because of this scholarship program within the The Leap, our youth is receiving new opportunities and forging new paths funded by fundraising and donations, and partnerships with Relevé Dance Studio, the Boys & Girls Club (Michigan & Boston), and the Huntington's Disease Society of America.  Click on "Scholarships" in the heading above to learn more about the lives we have changed and each application process!
