Get ready to get down. This experience is about having fun, being silly and getting sweaty. It relies on group participation, and individual willingness to take a turn. This is not about learning dance moves.  You don’t have to be a great dancer, or have any formal dance training experience. 

How it works:

After a 15-minute guided warm-up, participants take turns ‘being the leader.’ Each leader takes 1-2 minutes to lead (we’ll have a timer), and everyone else in the room does what they do. There could be prancing, swishing, two-step, twirling, the lawnmower, the robot, or even a little funky chicken.  Whatever the leader does, everyone else does too. 

Consider watching this video for inspiration.  We will intersperse opportunities for free dance throughout the evening.  

Rules:

• Ages 18+

• Wear comfortable clothing, socks or barefoot.

• Put your hands everywhere, except on other people without their permission.

• Bring a lot of water.

$10 per person.  All profits will be donated to Charm City Fringe, a Baltimore-based nonprofit that unites people through art, builds community, provides a place for weird, and empowers artists in producing bold, fun entertainment.
