Dance Life Studio & Fitness

Dance Life is a body-positive, fat-positive dance studio in Madison, Wisconsin, offering classes in belly dance, burlesque, ballet, hoop fitness and WERQ. The studio welcomes people of all genders, sizes, races, ages and mobility or ability levels, including those who have felt left out of traditional dance or fitness spaces. Classes range from beginner fundamentals to choreography-based troupes, and several routines are built around themed performances.

Classes meet in person at the studio on Seybold Road on the east side of Madison. Many classes are also streamed live over Zoom, so people elsewhere can join, and some fundamentals and level-up classes are available as recordings. Sign-up for in-person classes is through an online booking page, and the studio invites questions by chat or email before you start.
