Your Hip Hop instructor Britney Lindsey comes from Northern California and is 24 years-old where music and dancing largely influenced her life! Dancing since age 10, she has instructed hip hop for all levels, coached cheer for 7 years, and danced every day in some way or form- grocery stores, around the bedroom- you name it. No judging in this class! Come to smile, sweat, and party!

Stories in Motion is a story time program like no other! Come experience the magic as the children’s literature we explore comes to life through creative movement. As we dive into and dance through both old and new story favorites, children will have the opportunity to make meaningful personal connections, participate in creative and divergent thinking, and develop kinesthetic awareness and expression. Appropriate for both both boys and girls and all skill levels, this story time promises not to be forgotten!
