Community Dance Classes

Free Dance Classes for the Regent Park Community 

Jörgen Community Dance is thrilled to offer free in-person dance classes to the Regent Park Community. These classes are available to youth ages 9-18 in Regent Park, offering a chance to engage with their peers and the broader community. Dance is an opportunity to move and exercise in a fun and creative way. While developing strength and coordination, it also creates space for exploration and self-expression. These classes will offer a space for youth to gather, engage with their peers, strengthen their bodies, and delve into their creativity. 

All classes will take place in-person in Regent Park. 

Participants must have a Regent Park address. Registration priority will be give to TCHC tenants, but the broader community is welcome to apply.
