Read all about us!

American DanceWheels Foundation (ADF) was founded in 2004 to break the social and physical barriers between people with and without disabilities. Since then ADF’s copyrighted syllabus, Wheel One™, continues to be used throughout dance studios, schools, and rehabilitation settings across the United States and abroad and has even been proven by scientists to have multiple health benefits to participants. ADF's most prestigious performances include the Dancing with the Stars National Tour, a Lincoln Center live performance, the Sundance Channel’s TV show Push Girls, the award winning feature film Musical Chairs, the Pan American Games, and a live performance for the Papal visit.
