New rotating sunday series!

Sundays at 2 p.m. starting on August 23
Inspired by our Adult Intensive and meant to keep you on your toes (pun intended) this is an opportunity to workshop a variety of dance and movement-based classes that will rotate throughout the season.  Be sure to check our schedule and Mindbody for updates.  

We'll be kicking off the 26/27 season with an energetic six-week session of K-Pop choreography! Leaning into the global trend that is dominating the digital landscape, we'll be drawing from hip hop and jazz techniques while exploring sharp group synchronicity and musical beat isolations.
