Bring a Friend Day is focused on providing young children with an introduction to movement and dance through two free classes tailored to their age group. The event is open to all children. No experience necessary. It's a perfect opportunity for children to experience the magic of dance and for parents to learn more about the DTH School's programs.

“We hope to foster the joyous sense of play in young people through dance,” said Tai Jimenez, Director of the DTH School. “Bring a Friend Day will be an engaging and fun-filled experience for young people and their parents.”
