Community Classes are part of a 6-week session designed to introduce dancers in our 7 to 9's, Intermediate and Advanced Intermediate levels to the fundamentals of a new style of dance. Since these are purely technique-based classes, there will not be a formal performance associated with it, but we will have a 15-minute informal Watch Week at the end of the session so friends and family can see what we've been working on.
This session will run from October 1st through November 8th:
Community Hip Hop: Tuesdays from 6:30 - 7:30 pm // Cost: $105 for the 6-week session
Community Modern: Fridays from 6:15 - 7:15 pm // Cost: $105 for the 6-week session
Dancers must be enrolled in a 7 to 9's, Intermediate or Advanced Intermediate level class to be eligible for Community Classes.
