ANAR DANA projects are still welcoming drop in visitors if you are a current or former member of ANAR DANA (if you aren’t but have dance experience you can contact me about the option of drop ins). This way you can dance with your dance sisters anywhere in the world and brush up on some topic you may have done yourself, or learn something you always wanted to. To that end, in the calendar below I have listed which dances we will be working on on each day through the end of the year. In the second half of December I will be taking a break to take care of my family. Drop-ins are $55 for one unit (ie one day including the Awaken Your Dancing Body! class of that day.) We hope to see a lot of old faces and also give the current dancers the chance to meet their fellow dancers in other locales.
