In this series of dance classes our instructor, Erin McHenry (see bio bottom of this page), will teach the fundamentals of hip-hop, jazz (& street jazz) with a little bit of acrobatics thrown in too. Each class will be tailored for the specific age group, including age-appropriate music. We’re so excited to offer these fun dance classes right here in Girdwood! 

Scholarships and financial aid for these classes are available thanks to a grant from the Atwood Foundation to bring dance to Girdwood kids!  Give our office a call at 742-5317 or print-out the Program Scholarship Application and return to the FVCS office.
