RECLINERS TO RELEVE
Our month long workshop is for anyone who has ever wanted to learn ballet , but felt like they were too old, too inexperienced, or too out of shape, to step into the studio.  At NPD’s Recliners to Releve Workshop, there are no teens wearing Taylor Swift t-shirts with their legs wrapped around their heads.  No intimidating crowded rooms where everyone already seems to know the warm-up. 
Join us for four days of friendly, fun, informative dance training in a non-competitive environment geared towards adult learners.  The majority of our students range in age from early 30s to late 50s, but anyone 18 and older is welcome to attend.

 

Wednesdays | July 10-31 | 6:15-7:15pm

how do i sign up for Wedding Dance Workshops?

Registration for Wedding Dance Workshops is available for couples or singles here. Add an additional night to the end of your workshop for guided free dance to practice your new skills.

how do class punch cards work?

Once you have purchased your card, you may begin taking classes immediately. 

Class lengths will be dependent on how many sign up, but classes will always start at the scheduled start time. 

3+ attending: 1 hour 15 min class
2 attending: 1 hour class
1 attending: 45 min class 

what should i wear to class?

We keep it simple for our adult students. It is best to wear fitted clothing that won’t “ride up” when you are moving around. Yoga pants or sweats and tanks or t-shirts are perfect. Women should wear hair secured in a pony tail. For ballet classes, we recommend you purchase ballet shoes (we have some available at the studio). For Wedding Dance Workshop and B.Y.O. Broadway, sneakers are acceptable. We ask that your shoes have not recently been worn outdoors if you plan to wear them for dance class.

can an absolute beginner take adult classes?

Absolutely! Most of our adult students are beginners. These classes are designed to be fun and educational for our adult students. No previous dance experience is needed to participate. 

 

recreational classes

Northern Plains Dance’s recreational classes offer a variety of dance styles for beginning teens and adults. Just because you didn’t study dance as a young child – or stopped before you realized your full potential – it is never too late to experience the joy of dance. Absolute beginners welcome. No experience necessary.

 “I truly enjoy NPD’s adult classes. Not only are they a great form of movement and exercise, they are also inspiring and the instructors take time to break things down and explain in a way a person at any level can understand. I’m hooked – I keep coming back!”     – Ali (adult NPD student)
