DF Dance Studio Salsa Socials are a treat if you want some Authentic Latin Dancing in Salt Lake City.
There is always a beginner salsa or bachata class to start the night, and dance Shows and competitions during the night. But the real secret of these parties lies in the atmosphere of the studio and the people who attend it.
BYOP (bring your own partner) rule doesn’t apply here! Everyone dances with everyone. If you live in SLC and haven’t been to these socials, you’re missing out!
Ring Around the Rose is Repertory Dance Theatre‘s wiggle-friendly series of performances for children and families that explores the magical world of the arts, including dance, theatre, music, and storytelling.
Capoeira is a unique and vibrant Afro-Brazilian martial art that cultivates movement, culture, music, and philosophy. Capoeira is an Afro-Brazilian martial art that includes elements of physical and mental strength, beauty, and power. M. Jamaika often refers to capoeira as a “complete martial art” in that it encompasses a vast spectrum of movement and culture; it incorporates kicks, ground movements, self-defense, acrobatics, music, and tradition.
It is played in a circle, or roda, with two members engaging in various attacks and defenses while maintaining a melodic fluidity. These movements are driven by the rhythms emanating from the roda’s instruments and vocal songs. Capoeira was created by African slaves in Brazil over 500 years ago, and through Mestre Bimba and others, has since become a recognized art form. Capoeira can be done by anyone of any age or size, and its benefits are evident in all who take it on. It is a beautiful expression, which is best understood through active experience.
The formal performance space in the Marriott Center for Dance, The Hayes Christensen Theatre, was named in honor of Elizabeth R. Hayes and William Christensen, in recognition of their outstanding contributions to dance and the University of Utah.
The 333-seat professional theatre, shared by the Departments of Modern Dance and Ballet, has 14 rows of seating steeply raked to permit all audience members an excellent view. On stage left is a quick change room, restroom, and a ballet barre with an electric-radiant panel to warm dancers’ legs and feet.
Versatile yet intimate theatre can accommodate various live and unique performances. There’s not a bad seat in the house.
The Hayes Christensen Theatre has hosted lectures, conventions, lunch meetings, auditions, rehearsals, concerts, and live events, to name a few. In addition to the Theatre, The Marriott Center for Dance has space and studios to accommodate every activity.
