Start your dance training on the FAST TRACK!

The Newest Trend in Adult Dance Learning – is at dance 101!

 Our Intro to Dance Workshops are intensive educational experiences designed for the busy, the motivated and those new to dance.  Is that you?

Why take a workshop?

Because who has the free time to spend years learning to master something? Especially, especially when you have access to programs like these?

Intro to Dance Workshops are specifically designed for those who did not study dance as a kid.

You missed out on some fundamental knowledge that we can’t teach you in a drop in class because they move too fast.  Here we slow things down, teach you what you missed and send you into our weekly classes with confidence because you’ll have a solid foundation and a strong level of understanding of what you’re doing! In these workshops, attendance is limited to 10 people and everybody is new so we are able to focus on the basics – which is very helpful.

You can learn a lot just by taking classes, but in a workshop your learning is greatly accelerated – because everything is explained.

But really… Why SHOULD you take an Intro to Dance Workshop?:

Because it’s an amazing experience and you’re worth it. You deserve it. This is for you. For your growth, your wellness, your joy.  These are the same reasons you will take classes with us every week.  But in a workshop, it’s even more ‘you time’.

You get to be on the receiving end of a teacher that champions you directly.

 You will expand your mind and strengthen your body in new ways. And because you’ve made this commitment (even if it’s only 4 classes), you get to schedule other things around it so they don’t stop you from doing this for yourself.

Check out our workshops below. Follow our lead.  Let us do this for you.
