New! Broadway Workout
Join the 4-week Broadway Workout November Showcase Class
Tuesdays 7:00 pm – 8:00 pm
November 5 – 26 (4 weeks)
$45 for members • $65 for non-members
Our showcase number is “Cell Block Tango” from Chicago! Broadway Workout is the perfect combination of physical and mental exercise. We work our butts off to learn a whole dance in one-hour. It’s never perfect – and isn’t meant to be. If you’re having fun then you’re doing it right.
The Showcase class is like a regular class but a little more like a traditional dance class because we focus on one song for 4 weeks. The November Showcase Class is your chance to build on your skills each week and get ready for your Broadway debut. This class will still be 100% beginner-friendly.
About Broadway Workout: 5-6-7-8! Broadway Workout is a new dance-based fitness class for musical theater enthusiasts of any skill level. Learning choreography is great for mental and physical agility and is a ton of fun. Work on your choreography skills while working up a sweat to a popular Broadway song. Everyone welcome. No experience necessary.
