No matter what you (do or don’t) celebrate, ‘tis always the season… TO DANCE!   This Sunday, join DJ Mick at Soul Sanctuary Dance for a “seasonal” mix of familiar faves with a twist, twisty faves with unfamiliarity, and everything in between!

Expect rain outside and heat from within at Sunday's Soul Sanctuary. We'll warm up and move to a musical wave of funk, folk, trance, electronic, and marching band. Come and shine. Your host: DJ dadada​.

This Sunday, DJ Herb returns to Soul Sanctuary with ”I See You” as his musical theme. To Herb these words evoke a spectrum of feelings about “being seen” — from awkward shyness at one end to radiant shininess at the other, and everything in between.

This week's music theme is inspired by two foundational principles of our dance: inclusivity and free expression. All are welcome, and all are welcome to be themselves. Expect a far-ranging music mix in celebration of our real selves, with DJ Z as your host and DJ.
