Come together for a weekend in the dance studio! Enjoy the opportunity to recharge, move, and stretch, while enjoying the beautiful North Mountain landscape through the height of Autumn. During this session, you’ll collaborate with friends to immerse yourself in a world of dance with returning faculty member Maria Osende. This open-level workshop (beginner to beginner-intermediate level dancers) is a great chance for anyone who's been taking classes virtually to get back into the studio! All while adhering to the up-to-date safety guidelines and public health directives.

​Join us on the North Mountain and stay in our newly renovated farmhouse or glamping cabins for an unforgettable weekend of art, community, and wholesome homemade meals using local ingredients (many right from Ross Creek's own gardens)!

Please note: This workshop is for your enjoyment and personal development. We are a diverse group with different levels of skills and fitness, and students are welcome to participate to the degree that feels comfortable for them.

If you are unused to wearing ballet shoes, you are welcome to wear a light, padded sneaker, a dance sneaker or a split-sole jazz shoe for rehearsals.
