Our Vision:
We teach joyful classes where we build trust in ourselves and each other, meet new friends, and expand our world. Our classes and trainings are transformed by the ideas and perspectives of all participants, instructors, and community partners. People of diverse backgrounds come together to celebrate and re-discover the wisdom of movement through dance and weave it into daily life.
Alice says “It’s community, it’s health, it’s music–so it’s culture; it’s a great way to exercise and dance, and I know my balance has improved because of it!”
