More Than Dance

Programs at Mountain Movers

Beyond our weekly Movers classes, Mountain Movers offers programs for every kind of dancer — including our standout nonprofit Darby's Dancers program, an All Boys class and private lessons — all in a faith-based, non-competitive environment.

Our Signature Programs

  • Darby's Dancers

    Our nonprofit inclusive program brings the joy of dance to children with special needs — pairing each dancer with a caring buddy in a celebratory, supportive class. It's a program no other Roanoke-area studio offers, and one of the things that makes Mountain Movers truly special.
