Alia Montijo established Dance Avondale in January 2017 to provide outstanding professional instruction that is financially inclusive. It is an incubator of education, community, and creation. It provides youth and adult classes in which the highest quality of dance education is provided for the community at subsidized tuition rates.

 

For seven years, through its partnership with the Chicago Park District, Dance Avondale has served the community and surrounding neighborhoods by offering a diverse schedule of classes for youth students, adults, and professional dancers. As an anchor tenant at Movement on Montrose and a partner with The Logan Foundation, Dance Avondale expands its service area to Albany Park, offering a wider array of financially accessible classes for all interested movers!
