Join the Movement

Hi, I’m Cole Allen Johnson. As a young adult I wanted to find a place to meet new people through my greatest passion - listening to music and dancing. However, I soon found that my only options were bars and nightclubs. Hardly anyone would be dancing at these places, and whatever dancing there was certainly wasn’t partner dancing. There was none of that. Additionally the climate at these places makes it difficult to form connections with others. This is how I felt as a single man. What about families or older adults? Where are they supposed to go?

I created Wholesome Dance because I wanted to create opportunities for people like myself, who I believe make up the majority of America. We want to listen to music that lifts up our spirits and that we feel comfortable listening to around the people we love. We want to learn a fun skill that engages us mentally and physically. I wanted to create events where fathers and mothers, daughters and sons, grandparents and grandchildren, and singles of all ages can meet in a warm, welcoming environment to have fun and learn the art of dance.
