Where We’re Going
One of the best parts of this dance is that it's always taking us somewhere new.
Sometimes that's a weekly class. Sometimes it's a festival, a performance, or a weekend spent dancing alongside old friends and new ones.
This is where you'll find our upcoming classes, performances, workshops, festivals, and community events. Whether you'd like to dance with us, come cheer us on, or invite us to be part of something you're creating, we'd love to see you along the way.
Whether you're joining a class, cheering from the audience, or looking for partners for your next event, we'd love to meet you somewhere along the journey.
