What is the Dance On Weekly Class?

Our Dance On class uses the power of moving and making to cultivate connection, creativity, and greater health in our lives. Class is led by Dance On Lead Artist Judith Bauer, other Dance Exchange artists, and members of the Dance On OAC Cohort.

Class will include a guided physical and creative warm-up, an opportunity to make dances individually, in pairs, or small groups, and an opportunity to perform and reflect with the community that gathers each week.

To join us for class each Thursday, you will need the following:

  • A reliable internet connection

After a lifetime of watching dance, Judith Bauer is happy to be participating in making dance happen. Judith began dancing 16 years ago at age 70 as a way of dealing with health issues. While she has studied other forms, she is mainly interested in improvisational dance for its ability to keep one mentally sharp and focused on responding to others. She is enjoying the challenge of facilitating classes within virtual spaces. In addition to being part of the supportive community of Dance Exchange, Judith is a member of Quicksilver, the senior dance company of Arts for the Aging.
