New choreography class! And you can learn this one in just 4 weeks!

😜And it’s a little ridiculous.

On purpose.

🧸This original song by Hogg Shedd tells the highly questionable tale of what may or may not have happened after somebody took a gummy at a music event, and honestly? The energy of this piece is less “refined stage goddess” and more “well…this escalated quickly.”

‼️Which is exactly why Victoria is leaning into it.

💃🏻This choreography is fast, weird, playful, musical, and intentionally a little unhinged in the best possible way.

Zoom participation only.
But still the opportunity to perform it in our October show!

NEW choreography class - starting July 1
Wednesdays at 6:00 pm CST

Suzanne will be shaping her distinctive movement style — influenced by multiple dance forms over decades of study — into this beautiful melody inspired by Darat al Ayam by Oum Kalthoum.

And because the piece sits in a waltz rhythm, there’s a softness and circularity to the movement that feels completely different from the sharper textures many dancers are used to.

We have a new WORKSHOP coming up!
Wednesday June 24 from 6-8 pm CST

👀Have you ever watched someone dance and thought: “…what exactly are their hips DOING?”

🧩 Because technically it looks like basic hip work.
And yet somehow it has dimension. Texture. Depth. Weight. It almost looks 3D.

💡That’s not an accident.

💪🏼 In this workshop, Suzanne will break down how the belly, glutes, and surrounding musculature work together to transform otherwise simple hip movements into something much richer and more dynamic.
