Reviews
"Love my African Dance class here!"
"This is such a wonderful place, with such kind customer service! They went out of their way to help me to find the parking lot, even coming outside to show me the side street to turn into. Thank you for being so welcoming! And the African dance class is an absolute treasure. What incredible teachers, what great drummers, what beautiful dancers in the class. Such a special experience. How lucky we are for this to be offered so generously."
"The facility and crew are nice. The police and community should do a better job in that neighborhood though. So many junkies, drunks and skanks hanging around."
"I started back teaching Soul Line Dance classes at W.D. Hill on Thursday, May 14, 2022 at 6:30 pm. The recreation center was closed during COVID and for renovations. The building looks great inside and outside!! Very modern look. I enjoyed seeing former and new students in class!! We had a great time!!"
