Berkshire Pulse’s Community Class program offers a wide range of creative classes for people of any age or ability, from beginners to professionals. We are proud to offer an intergenerational program, with students ranging from teenagers to those in their 80s.
Whether you’re looking to build on your technique, train, meet new people, or simply try something new, we have a class for you. Our classes include modern, ballet, jazz, flamenco, hip hop, tap, musical theater, drumming, Shake Your Soul, and more.
Our experienced and passionate instructors are dedicated to creating a welcoming and supportive environment for all people. We believe that dance is for everyone, and we strive to provide a space where you can explore your creativity, develop your skills, and connect with a vibrant community of fellow dancers.
Pulse has never turned away a student for an inability to pay. To learn more about our robust Tuition Assistance program and Card to Culture benefits, click here.
