Heidi Stoeckley

Heidi Stoeckley is the artistic director for The Dance Foundation, formerly Children’s Dance Foundation. She oversees the vision of the Studio Program that provides classes for infants to adults and the Community Partnership Program that provides free to low-cost dance classes at daycares and child service organizations all over Birmingham. 

“My work at The Dance Foundation is my life work—meaning, I have been doing this work since I was very young,” she said.  “I was only 5 when I realized that dance was a safe place for me to be completely myself. I also discovered that my dancing had the power to impact others deeply and personally. I do what I do now so that others can discover these benefits for themselves.” 

Stoeckley and her family moved to Birmingham two years ago and purchased a home in Homewood.
