Designed to create space for transgender dancers and their allies, Trans Dance Connect is a modern dance class designed for beginners and those returning to dance after some time off. Our main objective is to come together, everything else is low stakes, high reward. Join us for some spirals, floorwork, and movement combinations!
Taught by Synapse guest artist and collaborator Reign Drop.
