Everyone can dance! Join a class and conversation about Alvin Ailey’s masterwork Revelations. After a warm-up for both seated and standing individuals, participants will learn modified excerpts of Revelations, which still resonates more than 60 years after its premiere.

Alvin Ailey said, “Dance is for everybody. I believe that the dance came from the people and that it should always be delivered back to the people.” Believing in the transformative power of movement, AileyDance for Active Aging provides classes for older adults that support strength, balance, and flexibility while offering an outlet for artistic expression.
