Minimum 6 dancers needed to keep the rhythm going—bring a friend and spread the word!

Class is intended for dancers with working knowledge of Ballet and modern dance for ongoing training in a slower-paced, yet still challenging environment. This class is open to any age with the experience.  

Minimum requirement for this class to run is 6 fully registered dancers.
