As a part of Velocity's Seattle Festival of Dance + Improvisation (SFD+I) we are providing 8 people with Unlimited Drop-In classes for the summer. This pass can be used at the participant's leisure throughout the months for any drop-in classes. TBIPOC Drop-In Pass holders will be given a discount code to pre register for classes or can show up on the day of class if space allows.
The TBIPOC Drop-In Pass cannot be used for Cohort rehearsals or Research Week intensives and can only be used for open, drop-in classes.
