Some words from our dancers!
"Dance Freedom has been a creative outlet for me, a place where I can go every week to celebrate the good times and lighten the bad times and find community."
"Dancing at Dance Freedom gives me a safe place to just dance without having to deal with the artificiality and meat-market atmosphere at the clubs".
" I agree with Emma Goldman: " If I Can't Dance, I Don't Want To Be Part of Your Revolution !" Dance Freedom is a safe place to let go of stress and find myself again."

Q: Do I have to go bare-foot?
A: Soft-soled dance shoes worn only indoors are also accepted; they need to be soft enough to not cause harm if you step on some one's bare foot.
Q: What if I don't know anyone?

About The Dance.
Dance Freedom believes that music and free style dance together are one of the most powerful vehicles for the expression of joy, creativity, human unity, as well as healing, ecstasy, and spiritual transformation. Countless participants through the three decades of our existence have shared these experiences, many were inspired to start new dances like ours all over the world.
Dance Freedom sees itself as creating a "sacred space" - not in a religious sense - rather as a precious ritual outside every day reality where the community can come together through dance and music to celebrate humanity, our planet, our universe, and the power of love and movement as a healing and transformative power.
