Questions About Your First Class?
Where are you located?
Our studio is located at 5643 Jefferson St. NE in Albuquerque, inside CrossFit Albuquerque. When you enter the office park, drive straight back toward the CrossFit Albuquerque sign.
Do I need previous dance experience?
Not at all! Our Pre-Premier classes welcome complete beginners. You’ll learn Highland Dance step by step in a supportive environment.
What should I wear to a trial class?
Comfortable shorts, a shirt, and socks are all you need! If you have ballet or other soft-soled dance shoes, you can wear those. Otherwise, socks are fine. Long hair should be tied back.
What should I bring?
Just a water bottle! Please arrive about five minutes early so we can show you around the studio and get to know you.
