Donation-based dance class series

Montage of Melissa Escano, Dani Criss, and Krystal LaBeija.

For eight weeks, twice a year, Dance To The People organizes donation based classes at BAX Brooklyn Arts Exchange, inviting teachers who seek to develop a particular technique, or answer specific movement questions, hence making the learning space a collective laboratory.

This series is geared towards the professional development of dance teachers and as a means to offer affordable dance classes to a wide community of dance lovers and movers.

This Spring we have an amazing lineup of POC artists from the US and around the world sharing dance forms filled with joy, history, and power of expression. To register to each class, please click on the links next to the class you want to come:
