NEW DANCE STUDIO, NEW DANCE CLASSES, NEW SEASON!

We are thrilled to be back in the saddle with our new dance studio and partnership with Healdsburg Dance Collective.

New Dance classes Starting September 2024 Carlisle, from magical Dragonfly Farm, has answered our call for a dedicated dance space and we have been working together with her to convert her barn into a dance studio with a padded/sprung wood floor, installed mirrors and (soon to come) Marley and ballet barres.  It’s gorgeous and rustic and special and you feel like you are in the garden while dancing- also access to an epic willow circle on the property. Yoga On Center is also coming back too with a new huge gorgeous space- so we will be able to have multiple dance spaces for classes and rehearsals.
