Fremont Dance Program Celebrates 50 Years

The City of Fremont Recreation Dance Program celebrates their "golden" year with recital celebrations Friday, Saturday and Sunday.

From the City of Fremont:

When the City of Fremont Recreation Dance Program started in 1963, there were just a few dance classes and only a handful of Dance Instructors. Fast forward to 2013 and the program includes more than 300 students per session and 20 dedicated Dance Instructors. Children, youth, adults, and seniors participate in a wide variety of dance opportunities such as Hip Hop, Ballet, Tap & Jazz, Ballroom, and Musical Theatre Dance. The dance program also offers cultural dance including Hula, Filipino Folk, and Bollywood. These classes are representative of Fremont’s great cultural diversity and designed for learning both fundamental dance techniques and expanding participant’s cultural awareness. 

The dance program has touched the lives of many dancers within the City of Fremont over the last 50 years. The classes have allowed participants, not only the chance to learn the art of dance, but to participate in a great physical activity and develop lasting friendships. 

Join us in commemorating 50 years of dance in the City of Fremont!
