what should i wear?

You are invited to wear whatever you feel most comfortable dancing in! more often than not, dancers come in workout or movement clothes, with socks or sneakers as footwear.

what do i need to bring?

All you need to bring is yourself, your admission (check with your local chapter to confirm prices and payment methods), and mayyyybe a bottle of water—hydration is key!

who are the instructors?

There are no instructors at DDPP! you’ll be welcomed and given a quick spiel by your local “den fam”—a group of fabulous volunteers who are responsible for organizing + running our local chapters.

After that, we dance like nobody’s instructing—because nobody is. :)

what music do you play?

The real question is “what music do *you* play?”

Each DDPP playlist is different because each session features a different guest DJ. it’s a great way to dance to your all-time faves and discover new jams to add to your personal rotation!

Once you have attended DDPP once, you can volunteer to create a playlist and become a guest dj at your local chapter!
