What do you offer for Adults?
Almost everything! Adults make up one of our largest demographics so we have classes catered especially to you. You may like to join our 50s+ Tap class (open to adults of all ages) or the Broadway class which focuses on stretch, strength, and classic dance exercises for adults.
If you're looking for something a little more difficult, you may want to try our Belly Dance, Ballet, Tap or Jazz classes for teens and adults. These classes are designed for young adults who have never danced before and want to try something new or have danced previously and want to get back into the art. Either way, you're welcomed!
Recently renewed classes: Int/Adv Modern Mondays 6:30-7:30, Ballet on Mondays 7:30-9, Ballroom/Latin and Belly Dance Wednesdays 7:30, and Zumba Thursdays 7-8.
