Hey there, friend! 💃 In today’s inspiring episode of Adulting with Autism, we step into a space where movement meets neurodivergent empowerment—the incredible Autistic Wings Dance Company, a nonprofit studio founded by mother-daughter duo Amanda and Leta in Colorado Springs.

Autistic Wings isn’t your average dance program—it’s a trauma-informed, sensory-aware space built by and for autistic dancers. From ballet to hip-hop, every class is designed with neurodivergent communication, learning styles, and sensory needs in mind—no masking, no pressure, just expression.

🩰 What we talk about:

• Why traditional dance studios often fail autistic dancers

• How Autistic Wings created the first IEP-style adaptive dance curriculum

• The emotional impact of being seen—and not shoved to the side

• Why therapists are now recommending dance as an alternative form of expression

• Their mission to expand into a larger, sensory-safe space to serve even more dancers

Whether you're an autism parent, educator, or just someone who believes in inclusion with soul, this episode will move you—literally and emotionally.
