Big huge shout out to BalletCenter Studios for generously hosting AADF2026 Winter Symposium!
AADF2026 Winter Symposium was a blast! We dance, we made some new friends, and we gave away some cool raffle prizes. Thank you to everyone who joined us for two full days of classes taught by popular local AAPI dance instructors. Attendees, instructors, and volunteers - all brought the energy and filled our weekend of dance with movement, vibes, and community!
