Dance to Discover The Beauty Inside
We recognize the world out there can be stressful - which is why we've created a world, in here, that is the opposite - inspiring, creative, full of freedom and acceptance!
Hip Expressions is a safe, supportive, and joyful environment where you can reconnect with your true beautiful self. Come regain your self-acceptance, confidence, grace, community, creativity, and a sense of freedom and playfulness that transcends the stresses and judgments of daily life.
We have found expression, meaning, and connection with dances and movement from around the world. As a beginner, try them all on, and then see which one resonates with YOU! By embracing these elements, you will rediscover the connection to yourself and the music you used to love or always wished you had. Your life will be transformed, becoming a testament to the power of movement, creativity, and community.
We have several different tracks of focus, pick your favorite, or, one or more for even more confidence and playtime! Our Trial Membership lets you get a taste of them all...

Hip Expressions Manifesto
I am here now and will do my best to help create a safe & welcoming space for all by …
being my beautiful, authentic self
making mistakes & moving on
signing up in advance
being fully present & engaged
listening to & loving my body the way it is
leaving my cell phone off to reduce distractions
arriving on time and staying for the entire class
throwing my gum away so my breath is free
listening silently when the instructor is talking
paying attention when others ask questions
focusing on myself & let others do the same
consciously placing myself in the space around me
reserving conversing with others to before & after class
keeping the space free of fragrance & strong body odors
being gentle with myself & others, in word, thought & deed
communicating concerns discreetly to my instructor or staff
sharing joyful movement with my new friends
not comparing myself to others
not taking things personally
doing my best… just for today
being okay feeling awkward
…having fun!
