What’s Happening?

No dance experience necessary!

Show up as you are, open to playing, movin' & groovin' in this exploration dance improvisation class. We'll be jamming to an array of Top Pop 100's from Hip Hop beats to Kate Bush. Dance party vibes leading in & out of intuitive guided solo and group movement with improv group choreography.

This class is meant to be a fun & safe place to dance like you're a teenager again and then switch back to our inner modern dance queens & kings. When we are free in our bodies and moving without judgment, we can access abundant freedom in all aspects of our lives.

Teachers that she's trained under include: Wade Madsen, Deborah Wolf, Alia Swersky, Corrie Befort, Pat Hon, Iyun Harrison, & Kendra Portier & has trained in New York City at Gibney Dance & Alvin Ailey.
