Aisha's Class Description

My class will explore a wide range of contemporary influences and movement practices. Some days will center on improvisational exploration, others will focus on rigor, effort, and technical clarity. Certain sessions may feel like a traditional class, while others will lean into more experimental approaches. Ultimately, this class is designed to be a creative playground for movement : ) LET'S DANCE

Access

DISCO RIOT classes are on a tiered payment scale ($10-30) because we believe that class should be affordable and accessible. No one is turned away for lack of funds. Please reach out to Nicole at education@discoriot.org for a waiver code.

In alignment with the values of DISCO RIOT, this class centers access, bodily autonomy, consent, and the cultivation of safe(r) community space in an ADA accessible studio. During the RSVP process, there will be a chance to share any access needs you may have. Please reach out to Alyssa at operations@discoriot.org for further accommodation inquiries or requests.
