Classes Through The Labor Day Holiday

The end of summer is upon us, marked by the Labor Day Holiday…

This is where I slightly panic and have to find opportunities to take class!  If you’re like me and want to know where to go, or want to try something new, check out what I have posted!  I have found a lot of wonderful new places to dance and interesting instructors by trying out new places during this time-frame!

Here is what I know about current, ongoing classes:
