DANCE WITH US!

Registration for the OFA Dance Program's Community Classes opens on August 19! 

FALL 2025 Classes: September 2-November 8

The OFA Dance Program offers non-credit community classes in a broad range of movement styles and dance traditions for all levels and abilities. Fall '25 classes are offered in Ballet, Bharatanatyam, Conditioning, Contemporary, Kathak, Hip-Hop, House, Latin & Afro-Caribbean (New!), Soca Fusion, and  West African. 

Taught by the OFA Dance Program's teaching artists– local professional dancers, pedagogues, and culture-bearers– classes are designed to be inclusive, joyful, and culturally rooted, allowing us to expand our understanding of dance and to connect to ourselves and each other authentically. Many classes also feature live music!

Most classes are offered via a 10-week series, with individual drop-in options available. We encourage enrolling for the full series to experience the breadth, engagement, and community that each class offers, but we also understand the need for flexibility. All participants must register online whether they enroll in the full series or individual drop-in. 

All classes are held at Harvard Dance Center, 66 Garden St., Cambridge, MA. Open to all who are age 18 and over! 

FREE FOR HARVARD UNDERGRADUATE STUDENTS!
