Get together, get moving, and build some midwinter heat with this all-abilities movement class offering a fun and inclusive approach to dancing. Designed for people of all shapes and sizes, backgrounds and identities, Dance Church is a communal space for people who want to move their bodies.

Founder Kate Wallich will lead an approximately 70-minute class with a series of movement cues, accompanied by a curated playlist of multi-genre pop music. The format is open but guided throughout. No previous dance training is required, but open-mindedness is a prerequisite.

Wear clothes you can sweat in, and bring a water bottle. Most people go barefoot or wear socks. 

Get lost dancing and sweat (a lot) together. It’s the dance party you wish you had last night.

Dance Church has been bringing people together through the joy and release of dance since 2010 — in real life and on the internet. Learn more at go.dancechurch.com.
