offered seasonally, semesters are a commitment to dancing regularly. this weekly rhythm creates a soft landing place for community, progression, and creativity.
welcome to spring at Rio - where we bloom, together.

we are so excited for this semester - leading up to our first annual student showcase - the Rio Show! whether you are eager to reconnect with an audience, or just hoping to reconnect with yourself - let’s grow this spring, together.
individual semester, $180*
*price will differ for 75 and 90 minute classes, as well as semesters that are only 5-weeks.
spring unlimited, $250/month
P.S. don’t see the style / level you were hoping for? we offer weekly drop-in classes in addition to our semesters - adding to the variety of classes and class times we offer. drop-in classes also mean there are ways to dance between semesters! yay! check out our drop-in schedule here.
semester F.A.Q.
Q: where can I find specifics about each offering?
select the class you are excited about in the schedule above - this will take you to the booking page where you can read the full description, review pricing, and book!
Q: do i need a partner for “west coast swing” or “intro to partner dancing”?
west coast swing: no! we will be rotating partners throughout each class.
intro to partner dance: yes! this class is geared towards partners specifically.
we know life happens! especially over a 10-week period. teachers plan around potential absences and while we hope you can make each class - we will help you catch up after any missed classes.
Q: what if i miss a class?
classes with specific levels are included in the name of the class - “beginner” or “intermediate”. that being said - we know levels are pretty subjective - so the description of the class will further clarify where you fit.
classes without a level designation in the title are ‘open level’ - meaning the class is welcoming to ALL levels and will be taught inclusively to a wide range of skills. some dancers will have more experience than you, others will have less - we all get to dance together. :)
Q: what level are these classes?
if class is cancelled by the studio [due to weather or teacher absense] a make-up class will be scheduled for the week of June 16 - 20. please plan to be available this week so that you don’t miss any rescheduled instruction.
Q: what if class is cancelled?
Q: what should i wear to my class?
specifics of what to wear are included in the description of each semester - that being said, WEAR WHAT YOU WANT. this is one of the fun parts about adult spaces, you can wear whatever the heck you want. our suggestions are based on our experience for comfort and success but you are also free to express yourself. [for tap specifically, we have most sizes at the studio for you to borrow while you shop for your own pair]
Q: what if the level / style i pick is not what i expected?
we will work with you personally to find a style / level that better suits your dance dreams! though semesters are not refundable, we do want you to be in a class that feels inspiring and safe for you. sometimes it’s a matter of being brave and sticking with something that feels new and uncomfortable, and sometimes a style or level switch will very easily do the trick! <3
