Ballroom Dancing

Music is the international language, and Dancing is music in motion.  Mission Project participants are fortunate and delighted to enjoy Ballroom Dancing – with professional instruction!!

Perry Gingerich, owner of Ballroom Unlimited in Mission, KS, donates his time, talent, and dance floor most Saturday mornings to teach our young adults how to dance the waltz, tango, salsa, cha cha, rumba, samba, Paso Doble, jive, and more (some of their own invention, I’m told).

The last two years, Perry has hosted a special New Year’s Party and Dance Event, for participants and their parents.  Located within easy walking distance of the participants’ apartment complex, this studio and activity are a highly-anticipated weekly destination.

The pictures tell the story better than I can.  Thanks, Perry.
