Get in shape is now! Dance is one of the best exercise modes to get fit and have fun whiling losing weight, reducing blood pressure, and achieving a sense of well being. Unlike the gym, everyone feels at ease. Classes are small, you receive more personal attention, and weight loss results are greater in a dance/fitness class where you have fun. All the teachers at The Kennedy Dancers are trained, certified fitness/dance experts. We offer classes you will enjoy again and again and a variety of styles you will not find at other dance studios.

Normally, adult classes are offered in 8-week series. We had to postpone all adult classes one week, so, this new session is only 7 weeks long for $100.
