Austin Dance Collective offers a variety of classes from contemporary, ethnic, folkloric, fitness, to healing arts. Our vision is to cultivate a communal space where we can share our bliss, work hard, learn, create, sweat, grow our dreams, be healthy, and have fun.
We are a little tricky to find. Walk between the Boost Mobile and N’Joy Nails to the back and go left. Or drive up to the upper lot above the Pizza Hut and come through the courtyard gates.
