Celebration: Dance Party 6.0
Community Class | Available
Who loves to party? Join us for fun, movement, and community! In this 2-hour class, you'll learn different kinds of dances like Latin, line dancing, freestyle, and hip-hop party moves. You'll also get to express yourself and try creative activities that mix dance and art.
Each week, we'll have a different theme and do activities like:
- Dancing and moving together
- A friendly welcome and warm-up
- Dance steps and fun improvisation
- Moving across the room
- Art activities
- Time to chat and connect
- Wrapping up with a closing circle
- Breaks to rest
Best of all, dancers will plan a party for the last day of the session on April 1! Together, you'll pick the theme, make a playlist, decorate the space, and celebrate.
Our Community Dance Classes at NaAC are for anyone 18 and older, no matter your dance skills, gender, or background. All movement styles and abilities are welcome!
