Since 1993 the Koresh School of Dance has offered open classes in dance instruction for adults. Our Center City Philadelphia studio at 2020 Chestnut Street boasts two sprung floor dance studios and large dressing rooms, with classes held seven days a week. We offer more than 35 adult classes in a wide variety of movement instruction, including belly dancing, pilates, tap, afro-modern, ballet, jazz, modern and hip-hop. Our instructors are widely regarded as some of the best in the city.
Our classes are all open so you can join at anytime.
There are no registration fees or minimum classes; you can take as many or few as you like.
We also have a children's program with classes for youth ages 2-16, which was named Best of Philly 2007 by Philadelphia Magazine. During a typical week, approximately 800 dance students, ages 2 through seniors, beginners to professionals, pass through our studio doors.
The Koresh School of Dance provides community members with a chance to learn about and express themselves through dance. Along with offering professional dance instruction, our facilities allow us to offer free or low-cost studio time to emerging choreographers and dance companies. We also provide rehearsal space for companies touring or passing through the region; most recently we hosted Pilobolus, Les Ballets Jazz de Montreal, Sydney Dance Company and River North Dance Company.
