Located at Bridge for Dance on 105th Street and Broadway, Ronald K. Brown's Modern Dance class draws everyone from Hollywood heartthrob Taye Diggs to Downtown bohemians and die-hard dancers. No matter what your level of experience, award-winning choreographer and teacher Brown welcomes you, creating a warm environment that's free from the intimidating competitiveness characteristic of many New York dance studios. Be prepared to sweat. His style—a high-impact fusion of African, hip-hop, and modern dance—demands that you leave your inhibitions at the classroom door. Conducted to house music and soul classics, the class costs $10 and normally runs about three hours.
