Registration
You must register to attend the workshop using the form below. It is advised to register early, as Alex has requested a limited number of spots and registration will close when we reach the cap. If you register and then decide not to attend please let us know so that we can open the spot for someone else. We will strive to create a balance between the man and woman’s role to ensure a more valuable learning experience for each dancer.
Registration for the workshops has reopened again. Some last minute cancellations have created spots.
