Join us every week for a dance class that will help you develop mindfulness, improve self-expression and emotional stability.
Prior dance experience is not required. Each week you will learn a new routine that layers in the basics of hip hop, and it's beginner! The classes are facilitated by choreographer and owner, Alisha Collins.

Dance sessions typically range from 60-75 minutes long.
Class Format:
Breathing Meditation/visualization followed by an aerobic/anaerobic warmup, where students will do stretches and other cardio related exercises to get the juices flowing, and increase flexibility in the body. Cardio is great for enhancing dance skills.
The Routines Students will follow and learn repetitive and simple moves that will need them to use their whole body. Students will focus on improving rhythm and master basic dance moves, to successfully do the routine. A few classes may focus on freestyle dancing and movement, as a way of encouraging students to come as they are and feel, and dance to express/tell a story or experience.
