LGBTQ2S+ Adults Welcome

Facilitated by Logan Holst

This dance class aims to build confidence and comfort in one’s body through creative movement. As someone who experiences gender dysphoria, Logan has experienced how being able to dance and express themselves and know their body could do things they was proud of helped them through their transition. Logan’s goal is for people to walk away from this with more confidence and to feel more at home in their body.

Logan is a nonbinary 2nd generation immigrant that has been dancing their entire life. They were classically trained in their grandmother’s studio until her retirement, after which they joined the JDHS dance team for all four years of high school. They currently teach recreational classes at Johnson Youth Center as part of their treatment program and they teach hip hop at Juneau Dance Theatre. In August 2023 they received their level 1 Dance Teacher University certification from UNLV.
