Have fun, get some exercise, and connect with fellow military veterans at these FREE group dance classes. No experience necessary!
About this Event

Veterans and their family members are invited to participate in FREE dance classes. These classes use dances such as Salsa, Bachata, and other Latin and social dances as a fun way to both exercise and connect with other veterans. Spend the afternoon enjoying some great music and learning dance steps that you can take to the local Latin dance clubs, weddings, and other social events.


Classes are open to individuals and couples – spouses and significant others are invited to learn with the veteran. No partner? No problem! We will switch partners throughout the class, so everyone gets a chance to dance.


No prior dance experience is needed. Leather/smooth-soled shoes are recommended – no flip flops.
