I’m supporting BOLD because I saw first hand how dance can bring joy, confidence, and connection to people with intellectual and developmental disabilities.
By Leo Berry
I believe that we each have a responsibility to help each other. Especially those that can’t always help themselves, or have the means to do so.
Helping individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities to experience the therapeutic benefits of ballroom dance is the mission behind Carmel, Indiana non profit: Benefits of Learning Dance Inc (BOLD).
That coupled with volunteer opportunities for youth of all ages to also have a chance to help others aligns with the mission of Helping Ninjas to inspire youth to help others and our planet, and provide opportunities to do so.
BOLD is a Carmel not-for-profit that turns joy into something real, giving the intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD) community the chance to learn ballroom dance, build confidence, and connect through movement.
TEENS FOR BOLD volunteering at BOLD
I have joined with six fellow friends and classmates to start a fundraising initiative: TEENS FOR BOLD. Myself, Leo Berry and founder, Remy Hollingsworth along with HC Wang, Ethan Morgel, Benny Winger, Knox Leimer.
BOLD FOR TEENS goal is to raise ten thousand dollars by the end of AUGUST 2026. Our team will donate the $10,000 to BOLD and sponsor a table at the BOLD Dance Gala on November 6th.
I’m supporting BOLD because I saw first hand how dance can bring joy, confidence, and connection to people with intellectual and developmental disabilities. I want to help raise money so more participants can experience the benefits of ballroom dance, therapy, social interaction, and performance opportunities.
BOLD’s founder, Sean Gehlhausen, has the long-term goal of getting ballroom dance officially recognized and state-funded as a therapeutic physical activity, like equestrian riding is for therapy. [1]
Remy Hollingsworth decided to start Teens For Bold to help being inspired upon volunteering at BOLD: “Some of the people closest to me have IDD. The first time we watched a BOLD Dance session, you could just see it on their faces. Pure joy. Like nothing else in the world mattered.”
As classmates and friends we are collectively working together to on a this fundraising initiative: TEENS FOR BOLD.
We invite you to help us help BOLD by donating!
