danceLogic® takes place at the Community Education Center (CEC) on Saturdays from the first Saturday in October to the second Saturday in June when the young ladies perform at the annual West Park Arts Fest. Participants, aged 10 to 18, take part in a 90-minute dance class followed by a 75-minute coding session. Dance teaching artists arrive at 9:30 am with dance class running from 10:00 – 11:30 a.m. There are Saturdays when the class does not meet due to holidays and spring break.
