Golden Groovers: The Music of Aretha Franklin

Despite the title, this is a dance class rather than a concert: one session in the Van Wezel's Golden Groovers series, designed for older adults and built around a different theme each week. Here the theme is Aretha Franklin's music. Van Wezel teaching artists Deb Lombard and Eric van Baars lead, warming up the body first and then teaching original choreography created for the theme. The class is not ballroom-style, though couples are welcome to attend together at the Van Wezel Performing Arts Hall.
