APRIL 2025 Dance Class Schedule:

​APRIL Dance Performance Workshop: ENYA

Come let your inner flower child flow freely in this melodramatic but also very sincere workshop wherein we’ll prepare for Spring’s Peak and Summer’s Dawn (Beltane) concurrent with All Species Day Celebration in Montpelier, Vt on May 4th.

The series of 8 classes will serve as both rehearsals to bring an Enya-style soaked “Flash Mob” to the event on May 4th, and also as a creative, playful and freeing dance container. Think group parachute play, flowy dance scarves, tossing flowers as you leap, and some actual checking in with your animal/s self. Take dance class like you’re a kid again, get goofy with us and call in all the kindred creatures with us.

Led by the fine local ladies who brought you Jock Jams and the Thriller Flash Mob, Emma Manion and Shannon Kelly.

Rehearsals are Thursdaya at 5:30p and Sundays 12:30p, CLICK HERE for more info & to register!

Ongoing weekly classes:

​​

Sundays, 11a-12:15p 

Sunday Service!

Featuring choreography created solely by yours truly, this dance-workout class is where I share my soul’s pure joy on the ritualistic day of reflection. It’s seriously my favorite part of the week. We sweat and get our Dance Medicine dose, moving and getting MOVED. An expansive library of dance movement and catharsis is explored and we leave feeling released, restored and connected. ​

• Where: New studio! Dance and Movement Center @ 162 N Main St, Barre, VT - entrance and ample parking in the back!

• Cost: $18-$20, drop-ins or series pass

• Bring a water bottle! Bare feet, socks or indoor jazz shoes are good for this floor. 

​

Wednesdays 5:15p-6:30p (No class April 30 - Emma away)​​

​Rhythm & Motion, Essentials 

A Vermont satellite class to the actual San Francisco treat. R&M dance classes balance the challenge of learning choreography with the dance-floor euphoria of a good party. Experience joy, expressiveness and freedom of movement in this high-energy (but low pressure) class I taught for a decade in SF and now get to share with my green-mountain home. We blend popular and global music & dance styles for an invigorating workout while exploring fundamentals of choreography.

• Location: Dance and Movement Center @ 162 N Main St, Barre, VT - entrance and ample parking in the back! 

• Cost: $18-$20 drop-ins or series pass

• Bare feet, socks, or jazz shoes are good for this floor. Bring a water bottle!

 

1st & 2nd Tuesdays 7-8p (we meet April 1 & 15 this month)​​​

Curtain Call: An exploration in Contemporary Dance

​Twice a month, join Dance Artist and Choreographer Emma Manion for an evening of studies in Contemporary Dance. The first half of class brings phrases that mobilize/warm the body and activate the core while exploring a vocabulary of movement and techniques that have elements of  jazz, ballet, modern and improvisation styles. The second half of class is spent delving into a longer combination of choreography drawn from concepts we’ve previously explored. Emphasis on playfulness, expressing ourselves and building mind-body connection while making art!

• Where: Blossom Wellness Center, 2nd floor of 7 Main St Montpelier VT

• Cost: Pre-register or drop in! $10-$17 sliding scale, class passes available.

• Bare feet and/or socks are best for this class :)​​
