Capital Sessions and the NAC are bringing you a series of FREE community house dance workshops.
It's family and beginner-friendly. The DJ plays deep soulful house music from 1:30 to 3:30 pm and the dancer leads two 30-minute workshops at 1:30 and 2:30 pm. You can just dance, learn or listen and vibe out - it's a beautiful space with amazing music!
No experience required. FREE.
