WHAT we do
---
Queerobics is a pop-up, accessibility-centered community dance class and performance project all in one.
We aim to celebrate moving together, both literally and metaphorically, toward an anti-ableist, anti-racist, fat liberationist, consent-centered practice.

Queerobics West Philly is a pop-up, accessibility-centered, masks-required community dance and movement class. This project is collectively led and steered by queer and trans dance and movement artists, disabled, and chronically ill community members.
Our Dance Captains demonstrate movement variations in real time alongside the lead instructor, including low impact variations and participation from a seated position.
