Not a natural-born dancer or singer?

We created The Broadway Diva Experience for you! To create a space where everyone is welcome – whether you’ve performed before or never set foot in a rehearsal room, the weekend is designed to be a judgement-free zone, where the focus is having fun and learning together.  

We’ll guide you through an easy-to-follow cardio warm up, then teach you a routine step-by-step. And don’t worry, we always dance as a group with an instructor up front, so no solo performances to worry about.

Remember, it’s not about perfection – it’s about letting loose, embracing the joy of movement, and feeling a part of a supportive community.
