The Breathe Experience Foundation is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit dedicated to expanding access to the arts for youth of all backgrounds. We believe every child deserves the chance to learn, grow, and thrive through creative expression—regardless of financial barriers.
Through scholarships, school partnerships, and community outreach, we provide opportunities for young dancers and artists to shine both on and off the stage. From offering tuition assistance for training to bringing arts programming into Title I schools, our mission is to cultivate confidence, creativity, and community connection.
At the heart of our work is the belief that the arts are more than performance—they are a pathway to leadership, resilience, and lifelong success. With the support of donors, sponsors, and community partners, the Breathe Experience Foundation continues to nurture the next generation of artists and changemakers.
OUR PURPOSE: Our purpose is to sustain the arts in our community by uplifting and empowering the next generation of artists. Through high-quality dance education, leadership development, and scholarship opportunities, we provide access, equity, and creative space for self-expression. Our work fosters connection, builds community, and ensures that every young dancer feels seen, heard, and supported in their artistic journey.
Impact Areas
Scholarships: Providing financial assistance so that talent, not circumstance, determines opportunity.
Outreach: Delivering accessible dance and arts programming to schools and underserved communities.
Community Programming: Creating mentorship, leadership, and performance opportunities that inspire growth and empowerment.
This year, through the foundation, we were able to award a scholarship to our Breathe Studio graduating senior and provide a stipend to our student TA!
Every year, our goal is to give every senior who graduates from Breathe Studio a small token of our appreciation. This is a thank you to their commitment to continuing to build with us through high school, but also an acknowledgment that #WeAreFamily and support our families even beyond the studio.
Having a student TA strengthens their leadership skills, provides mentorships to their peers, builds confidence, and creates a liaison between dancers and instructors. Giving dancers an additional safe space within the studio.
Continue to support these #EXPERIENCES and more by donating, sponsoring, and/or participating in upcoming fundraising events!
