About Our Spaces and Organization

Dance Jam has two dance spaces. The "Hot Room", features up-tempo music. The deejays play a mix of music ranging from the cutting edge to the familiar. You will hear an eclectic blend that is sure to please most everyone. The first 45 minutes is a luscious warm-up, so come early and unwind your body.

The "Warm Room" is a chill space. Music alternates weekly between live and recorded music. The live music is mostly down-tempo and allows for deep, meditative movement with and without partners. The recorded music is primarily down-tempo. You are likely to hear Ambient Groove, Jazz, Acid Jazz, Blues, Latin, and Classical sprinkled in. A lot of people like to do Contact Improvisation in this room. The live and recorded music is very supportive of an inward journey.

We are a non-profit dance organization dedicated to promoting self-expression and community through dance.
