Dance Church is excited to join the fifth Summer Series at the Amphitheater! Dance Church will start the evening with an outdoor dance class experience at 6 pm, followed by performances from Massive Monkees and Northwest Tap Connection.

About the event:

Dance Church® is an all-levels movement class that offers a fun and inclusive approach to dancing. Designed for people of all shapes and sizes, backgrounds and identities, Dance Church is a communal space for people who want to move their bodies.

Over the summer, Volunteer Park Trust is presenting the Summer Series at the Amphitheater, hosting six free shows and performances on Thursday evenings, July 13 to August 17, from 6:00-8:30pm.

Come celebrate with us all summer long! Bring a picnic, your blanket, and your friends and family to enjoy the show each Thursday. Food trucks will also be available at each event.

The teacher leads this 55ish minute class in a series of movement cues, accompanied by a curated playlist of multi-genre pop music. The format is open but guided throughout. All levels, body types, identities and genders. No previous training is required, but open-mindedness is a prerequisite. Get lost dancing together — it’s the dance party you wish you had last night.
