Services
While Dance Life has always prided itself on offering affordable dance and fitness classes, we're struggling to stay open and are entirely reliant upon classes and events to stay in our building and to keep our bills paid.
If you can afford to pay more for classes, please consider leaving a "tip" on your Vagaro payment!
Thank you so much for considering it!

We're all about having fun and dancing to non-traditional songs.

With an emphasis on muscle conditioning and core engagement, ballet fitness will help build stronger muscles, increase endurance and strengthen your core, all while making you feel like a warrior.
Expect to start class with a set of ballet stretches, then work into movement combos including 2nd position plies, arabesques, etc and elevation combos (kicks, plies, etc), with the second half of the class focusing on strengthening floor work on a mat.
Wrist/ankle weights optional.
No ballet or dance experience required to attend this class!

This class learns a choreography for 7-9 weeks, with a new snippet learned each week- join at any time.
Shimmies and hip drops and undulations, oh my!
If you are familiar with a few basic belly dance moves and have been wondering what to do with them next, join us for a Belly Dance Adventure!
Each week brings a new adventure in the form of a different extended combo each class, which culminates in an entire choreography by the end of the session.
All new moves are fully explained and broken down, and dancers are encouraged to begin anywhere in the session.
