Throughout Summer 2025, we plan to keep Saturday classes running, and hold a short 30-minute rehearsal after class, to brush up on Summer material. Company members will receive each class series for a discounted rate of $75 and the expectation is that you will continue attending classes and rehearsals regularly throughout the Summer, in order to keep growing, and keep the material fresh in your body and mind. Company members are expected to perform for at least three Summer shows, in addition to the Spring Concert. Payment for any Summer performance can be applied to class tuition. *If you need further financial assistance, please let us know and we can look into work-trade possibilities.
August 9 - September 1
No classes or rehearsals. There may still be performances scheduled during this time.

Company members are invited and encouraged to attend this class series at a discounted rate of $100 for the full series or $15 per single class. We will not be holding rehearsals during this time. But there will still be a few Fall assemblies and performances, for those interested in continuing classes and performances. For those who need a break from performances and/or training, the Fall and Winter can serve as company downtime.
We will hold another dance audition in January of 2026. *If you are interested in participating in the company, but the rehearsal schedule, expectations, financial structure, or any other aspect of these details doesn’t work for you, please let Lorin know by emailing her at Lorin@sambafogo.com
