How do I choose a class?

    *  Ask! Bring your questions to us by phone, email, or in person, and someone knowledgeable can help guide you. Please be aware that from 5 to 9pm on Mondays through Fridays, and from 11am to 2pm on Saturdays, our front desk is particularly busy, so they may not be able to answer all of your questions at those times.
    * Watch! You can always observe any class for free. All you have to do is check in and leave your photo ID at the front desk.
    * DO! Let your body tell you. There’s nothing like the actual experience of taking a class. Try dancing in different classes and with different instructors. Stick with the class(es) that inspire feelings of joyfulness and exuberance. To help you make that leap, we often have New Student Promotions that give you the opportunity to take free or discounted classes.

 
How do I sign up for class?

You can sign up at the front desk a few minutes before class or you can call 415-863-9830 x100.  You can pay for class at the drop-in rate of $12 or you can purchase a class card in 4-, 8-, 12- or 16-class increments.

 
When should I arrive for class?

It’s best to arrive 15-20 minutes before class. This will give you time to check in, change, and stretch if you need to before class. (First time students should bring a photo ID and be prepared to fill out a new student registration form upon check-in).

 
What should I wear?

Wear loose, comfortable clothing that you can easily dance in and see your alignment and movement.
