Moving in the Spirit is hosting a six-week open class series for movers of all ages.

Children, parents, grandparents, dancers, and dance lovers – all are welcome!

This spring’s open series features Jazz Fusion with Leon Von Brown.

Incorporating elements from jazz, modern, ballet, and aerobics, Jazz Fusion delivers a fun and energetic dance experience for all.

About the Series:

Moving in the Spirit’s open class series is a place for the community to move together, have fun, and explore different styles of dance in a low-stress, friendly environment.

Students in this series come from a range of experiences – some have danced before, while others are exploring their curiosity of dance for the first time. Parents and children often take class together, as do friends, neighbors and co-workers looking for an upbeat bonding activity.

No formal dance training is required!

Tuesdays, 3/21 – 4/25, from 6:30 PM – 7:30 PM at Moving in the Spirit
