For these 6 weeks C.E. will be tailored to incorporate elements of the choreography.

In other words, will really help if you come!

- Thursdays 6:30-8:30pm – Spin Intensive will provide the foundation for the choreography.
(Spin Intensive – Starts Nov 7 – Dec 12th ). All participants may enroll at a discount rate of $150 instead of the regular $200)
Choreography Intensive Training:
The choreography will be taught and practiced in a strategic and focused way, drawing on material worked on in the spin intensive. Each Tuesday will introduce and train a new section of the choreography. It is very important that students review what we learned the week before. Videos of each section will be provided after each class which will give you the opportunity to practice outside of class. For example, allocating 5 to 10 min a day minimum will make maximum difference!
