2026 Summer dance classes
GSA and guest dance faculty offer drop-in classes all summer for dancers ages 13 to adult
June 12th and finishing on August 11th.
Cost: $10 per class, paid directly to each instructor. Each instructor will have a Venmo or you may bring cash or check to each class.
Location: All classes are held at The Governor's School for the Arts, 254 Granby Street, Norfolk, VA 23510. Classes are held in the Expansion building dance studios. Since we have a secure building, students will be let in 15 minutes prior to each class and right up until class is scheduled to start.
**If students arrive after class has started they will not be able to enter.
Important Information: All classes are embedded into the calendar below.
Please click on the day that you wish to attend a class to make sure that the class you would like to attend is happening on the date selected. This calendar information will also provide the detail of which studio the class is taking place in.
**Not all classes happen each week due to the individual instructors' schedules.
