| Renting Redwood Raks for Dance Classes & Rehearsals... |
Space for your Classes, Shows, Events, Meetings, Rehearsals and more...
dance classes / rehearsals • special events • insurance • see photos • forms |
 |
| |
We're delighted to have a diverse array of dance styles represented in the class offerings and rehearsing groups that call Redwood Raks home. At the moment we have several styles of Belly Dance, Hula, West African Drum & Dance, Samba, Hoop Dance, Karate, Argentine Tango, Break Dancing, Zumba, Nia and of course, the Monday Swing Night... an Arcata tradition!
While our schedule gets pretty full during "prime time" hours we're happy to include you on our waiting list. We are happy to have multiple instructors in the same style of dance. All instructors rent studio space, carry their own teaching insurance and operate their own programs including publicity. Be sure you're listed on www.HumboldtDancer.net!
I've led many classes over the years and am happy to consult with you on ideas to make your class successful. Here are some helpful tips on CLASS PROMOTION that I've compiled. If you'd like to teach a class, check the schedule and give me a call at (707) 616-6876 or email anytime. Happy dancing!
