New class starts Friday 11 September, 6pm 🏳️‍🌈

Explore contemporary dance in a safe, supportive and trans/queer affirming environment.

Maybe you’ve always wanted to dance or just want to feel good and at home in your body, this beginners’ class led by Arco (.ezra) is perfect for you. Using the basics of release, a movement practice that focuses on letting go of unnecessary muscle tension, you’ll use momentum and gravity to support your body.

Drop in or book in advance by emailing Arco at [email protected]
