Spirit Week: A 5-Day Homecoming Celebration

September 8-13

Get ready to show your Dance Place pride like never before! Spirit Week is our ultimate homecoming/welcoming celebration-six days of fun, community connection, and non-stop movement that kicks off our 45th season in style. 

Each day brings its own energy and invitation to play. Every evening begins with a 6pm pep rally led by our incredible teaching artists, followed by specially curated Spirit Week classes that blend genres, generations, and communities.

The week culminates in an unforgettable Saturday festival, featuring classes and storytelling circles with legendary DMV Dance Elders, pop-up performances every hour, and a block party that transforms our entire campus into one giant celebration. Add in art installations you can contribute to, conversations that matter, and raffles throughout the week, and you’ve got a homecoming that honors our legacy while building our future.

Whether you’re a longtime Dance Place family member or stepping onto our campus for the first time, Spirit Week is your invitation to belong. Come for a class, stay for the community, and leave knowing you’ve helped create something magical.

Your Dance Place family is waiting.

Thank you to our 2025-2026 Season Supporters!
