BRING IT ON THE MUSICAL

Master Dance Class Gregory Haney, La Cienega
30 students took class at COCA |
"Class will be a mix of jazz and hip-hop. It's an urban mashup
of both styles while still maintaining technical undertones. My background
in dance comes from ballet, jazz, modern, and hip-hop so you will definitely
get a mix. Another focus of the class will be story telling as dancers are
storytellers with movement" --Gregory
