Fall 2026 - Intro to Heels

Service Description

Intro to Heels is designed to build control and physical awareness in heels-based movement. You’ll work on balance, foot articulation, bevels, hip shifts, walks, and body rolls, with conditioning to support strength and joint health. Exercises and combinations are structured to help you explore these skills safely while applying them in movement phrases. Open to new heels movers, this class provides a supportive environment to develop technique, increase coordination, and grow in. ATTIRE: Wear whatever helps you feel confident, powerful, and connected to the movement. While your favorite joggers and tee are always welcome, heels is also a chance to wear the outfit you've been looking for an excuse to put on. Whether that's a bodysuit, matching set, oversized button-down, or something uniquely you, choose clothing that lets you move freely and step into the energy of the class. Please wear clean heels that are dedicated to dance class and have not been worn outdoors. We recommend open-toe styles with a stiletto heel. For safety and stability, please avoid platforms and chunky heels. Visit our Recommendations page for suggested shoe styles and retailers. CLASS SCHEDULE: This 10-week session runs from Sept 27 - Dec 4. The price shown is for the entire session. OPTIONAL PERFORMANCE OPPORTUNITY: This fall, dancers enrolled in select classes will have the opportunity to perform in TDF Stage Sessions on December 4. Designed as a low-pressure performance experience, Stage Sessions gives dancers the chance to perform their class choreography on a real stage for an audience of fellow TDF dancers. There are no auditions, no additional rehearsals, and no tickets to sell. Your instructor will prepare your class piece during your regular class time. Participation is completely optional, making this a great opportunity for dancers who want to experience the excitement of performing while building confidence in a supportive community.
