Classes & Workshops
We challenge the historical exploitation of dancers, especially BIPOC dancers, through a regenerative abundant culture through livable wages, sociocracy, consistent work, opportunities for advancement, collaboration, and shared leadership.

Lake Merritt Pergola
599 El Embarcadero, Oakland, CA 94610
House Dance is a style of dance that originated in the late ‘70s and early ‘80s from underground clubs in Chicago and New York. It is a melting pot of many styles, such as Tap Dance, African dance, Latin dance, Capoeira and Hip Hop, as well as other street dance forms.
In this class, Rama explores groove, technique, footwork, body control, spins, feeling, connecting to the music, connecting with each other, and more. Rama teaches foundation and concepts, as well as phrases to put the ideas together, and space at the end to explore everything the student has learned.
This class is outdoors, in front of the beautiful Lake Merritt.
