Creating Community When We Needed It Most...And Continuing It Today
A Pandemic project
2021
I started Disco Ball Designs in 2021 as a pandemic project. As a dance fitness instructor, I missed seeing my students at the gym every week. Online classes just weren’t the same! My t-shirts were a fun way to bring joy and happiness to people during a time when we couldn’t get together. It all started with this Social Dis-Dancing shirt.
Custom Class Merch
2022
Outdoor classes started, and I worked with instructors to create camaraderie-building custom class shirts as we all tried to re-build our dance communities in a brand new way. My friend Christina built rolling mirrors in her garage, and taught U-Jam classes in her driveway under that big disco ball in the sky… We designed this shirt together...
More Than Just Shirts
2023
Now that we’re back at the gym, we at Disco Ball Designs have kept the fun going, and expanded into so much more than t-shirts… Now you’ll find leggings, and hats, and shoes–oh my! They’re all high quality, and custom-designed with the dance fitness enthusiast in mind.
Dance Fitness Courses
2024
Plus, we’re adding online classes for even more fun! Watch for our Shirt Cuts video course, where you can learn how to add some extra flair to your t-shirts, and our Dance Fitness Confidence course, which brings you tips and techniques that will build your skill and your confidence in class. Both courses are coming soon!
