🍂🍁Nashville Fam DanceGiving Social (Classes + 3 Dance Rooms)🍁🍂

The Nashville dance community is like a family, so let’s celebrate this Thanksgiving weekend with a DanceGiving social for the Global Education Center. A large group of your favorite Nashville instructors and organizers are coming together for this great cause!

We will not only be doing what we love as a dance family but also paying it forward to those in need. The holiday seasons are all about giving after all!

In the style of Global’s signature World Dance Party, there will be thirty-minute classes in THREE rooms happening from 6:30pm-8pm. All levels welcome.

Classes and instructors to be announced soon!

🚪Check in either up front through the shop or around back on the Hugh Baby’s side where the deck is. You will get a wrist band that will allow you to go back and forth between all three studios!

After classes, a 3-room social will kick off at 8pm!

-Room 1: Salsa, Mambo, Cha Cha, Cumbia, Timba, and Merengue (Music by Nashville Rueda and Nashville Salsa Dancing)
-Room 2: Traditional Bachata & Sensual Bachata (Music by Traditional Bachata Nashville)
-Room 3: Brazilian Zouk, Urban Kiz, Kizomba, and Kompa (Music by Nashville Zouk)

BYOB, a festive dish if you’d like, your dance shoes, and some friends!

🅿️ Parking: There is lots of FREE parking along 49th Ave and in Richland Park across the street. Please refrain from parking in the spots directly behind Global, which are reserved for Global staff, and please avoid parking in the alleyway. Thank you. 🙂

The Global Education Center is one of our favorite local nonprofits, and it is very near and dear to our hearts.

Not only does Global provide an affordable space for our dance community to learn and connect, they organized and were home to many of the first Latin dance classes here in Nashville!

The Global Education Center is also a safe haven for cultural exploration. They open their doors and empower local and international artists and performers from a multitude of disciplines and all walks of life. They also train the community, including children and families at local schools and other organizations, such as the Juvenile Justice Center, on anti bias and multicultural education. This instruction emphasizes the commonalities of all people through a deep dive into the arts of diverse cultures. Thank you, Global, for your unwavering support of Latin dance in Nashville and for being such a devoted advocate of global awareness, empathy, and humanity. We love you!

Special thank you to all of the participating instructors and organizers for donating their time and talent for this great cause.
