No, this is not an audition call for new strip dancers at Club Galaxy (“100 Beautiful Girls!”). Active Arts at the Music Center invites you to attend A Taste of Dance next Saturday, March 29.

This interactive event is a celebration of the diverse dance heritage and cultures throughout our great city.

Music video choreography, bluesy bachata, pop & lock free-style, the classic Viennese Waltz and many other international dance styles will be available for $1 per 20-minute lesson over the course of five hours from 11:00am to 4:00pm.

Showcase your talents for a good cause: Proceeds go toward future Active Arts events. Come out and support the arts in our community!

Class sizes are limited and comfortable clothing/shoes is recommended. Some classes may require barefoot dancing.
