Have you ever been curious about what resources are available for people who are in transition, gender non-conforming, or simply looking for more comfort in their own body? Join founder of underDARE, Marcy Darling, for this one hour introductory conversation! For many people, the only access to information they have about gender-affirming garments is a vague idea and access to the internet because so few brick and mortar shopping institutions dedicated to those garments exist. Marcy will talk briefly about the beginnings of underDARE and her frustration finding garments for her trans son, touch on compression garments, safety, resources, have a question and answer period, and then allow students to come up, look at, and touch the garments she has brought with her. Ages 14 and up with an adult. underdare.me _____________________________________________________________ Please read our Adult Programming Overview page for all info regarding registration, cancellation, and building info.

This class focuses on learning and rehearsing one or two ballet variations. Variations, the "solos" of the ballet world, range from famous pieces like Sugar Plum and four little swans to lesser-known gems, offering diverse styles and difficulty levels. Benefits of working on variations: Introduces steps not typically covered in class. Builds strength, stamina, and technique through weekly repetition. Enhances performance skills like spacing and character. Variations are the pinnacle of ballet, performed by elite dancers, and come in styles like adagio (slow) and allegro (quick and jump-filled). Some have multiple choreography options (e.g., Sugar Plum), while others (e.g., Lilac Fairy) follow traditional forms. Requirements:You must attend the Ballet 1 (7-8:30 PM) as a warm-up or obtain instructor permission if you attend another Monday night class. ______________________________________________ Please read our Adult Programming Overview page for all info regarding registration, cancellation, and building info.
