Frequently Asked Questions
-
Do I need to know how to dance in order to participate?You do not need any prior dance experience! Be You Disco is all about free form movement, ecstatic dance, and listening to your body's impulses. This is not a "follow the leader" dance class. It is a space where you are encouraged to move how you feel in each moment and is the perfect space for those that think they can't dance. There is no wrong way to dance here. Your self-expression is perfectly imperfect and we welcome it all on our sandy dance floor.
