Wow, what a year it was. We offered more free community dance classes in 2021 than ever before!

Beautiful people and gorgeous sunsets.

 

The Downtown Memphis Commission and Memphis River Parks Partnership kindly let us use Fourth Bluff Park to offer a community salsa class in April, and the response was so amazing that we quickly set up three more. The Latin Dance Series (merengue, bachata, and another salsa class) made the hot these hot summer evenings even hotter.

We also partnered with The Brooks Museum to offer a merengue class during an outdoor exhibit by Ball Nogues Studio. Dancing in and among those fantastical creations was a real delight.

And let’s not forget the crazy weekend that was Fieldaze, when downtown Memphis turned into a playground for adults. Salsa at Wiseacre Brewery and Swing in Fourth Bluff Park were our contributions to the mix.

The Fallback Fall Dance Series rounded out the year, pairing fun social dances with old school music. It got a little cold towards the end, but as soon as the dancing began everyone was feeling fine.
