Alegria lore is kinda chic.
Conveniently, this is also the week to test the theory.

Come for one class. We make no promises about what happens to your schedule after that.

Bring a Friend Week + Trial Week are open to all levels. Registration is required before class through the link in our bio, with spots based on availability.



Extremely niche family bonding activity.

One class was apparently just the gateway.

Not even your number and somehow you’re fully invested.

You do technically have another address.

They’ve heard enough class lore. It’s time for their guest appearance.

Bring the friend who knows every detail about your dance life, or the one who has been meaning to see what class is actually like.

Current students can invite one new friend to join their regular class this week. It is also Trial Week for all teen and adult classes, first time students can come try a class too.

Register before your visit through the link in our bio. Space is based on class availability.



They already have someone to walk in with, warm up with, and stand next to.

They do not need to know a single step before they arrive.

Trying something new is way less awkward with a friend beside you.

Adult first timers are welcome to try a class for free! Pick a class, register, and come see if it feels like your thing.

Just a typical day at Alegria.

Flipped around a little, did several full out run throughs, then headed home to tell your family you didn’t do much. 🤷‍♀️

No big deal.

✨ Week one camera roll dump ✨

Somewhere between getting everyone back into class and catching up with familiar faces, we ended up taking more pictures than we knew what to do with.

Late to the feed, but we finally got them out of the camera roll.

Not every Alegria moment gets a spotlight.

These moments may be a little one joining in for their first class, a student finally nailing a skill they’ve been working on for weeks, a team cheering their friend on from the wings, or an adult making time for themselves again.

At Alegria there are different ages, different goals, and plenty of reasons to keep showing up!
