The first class will kick off on Wednesday, August 26, 2020, at 11AM and will be instructed through an exclusive dedicated ECF Zoom virtual meeting room and will include a short class instruction, a live performance from ARC Entertainment Company principals and a Q&A so that students can interact directly with the dancers.
