Unlike traditional dance studios that Charleston typically offers, our sessions are built around sweat and soul. Our adult dance classes are perfect for both Charleston locals and visitor, focusing on "Dance Sculpt"—a hybrid of high-energy choreography and body-toning movements designed to be a total-body release. You can expect a high-vibration environment where the music is loud and the energy is contagious. Whether you are here to perfect your rhythm or just shake off the day, our classes are about the feeling of the movement rather than the perfection of the step.

Finding the right fit for you depends on whether you’re looking for a rhythmic sweat or a focused groove. If you want a high-energy, immersive journey that prioritizes bold movement and emotional release, Dance 60 is a great choice. However, if you’re looking to specifically explore rhythm and style, our Hip Hop Workshop stands out among hip hop dance studios in Charleston for its inclusive, play-focused environment. While Dance 60 leans into the instructor’s unique musicality and collective energy, the Hip Hop Workshop provides a structured yet accessible space for all levels to connect with the music.
Our method blends rhythmic sequencing with somatic awareness, ensuring every move is intentional. This isn't just a standard workout; it is a comprehensive form of strength training used to tone the body while regulating the nervous system. By syncing powerful, controlled movements to the beat of the music, we create a high-intensity but low impact workout that challenges you without putting stress on the body.

Not at all! We take pride in offering some of the most accessible beginners dance classes for adults in the city. At The Drop In, we believe movement is a birthright, not a skill reserved for the pros. Our inclusive environment is a welcome alternative to many dance studios in Charleston because we focus on "dropping in" to your own body rather than following a mirror-perfect routine. Whether you haven't danced since childhood or have never stepped foot on a dance floor, our instructors guide you through every beat. All you need is an open mind and a willingness to let go and move.
Verified Vibes
“The very first thing that I noticed when I came to my first class was how SAFE it felt for bodies of all sizes, colors, genders, and personalities. The owners and all of the coaches have a genuine excitement for connecting with the entire community, not just their members. They get to know and love to celebrate every aspect of who you are, not just your fitness accomplishments. The drop in has been a place where I have felt my body becoming stronger both because of their coaching and because it's an environment that feels so easy to be consistent in.”

“I was invited to my very first Drop In Spin session which is crazy because I always wanted to try it for years. When I initially entered the space, I was greeted with warm welcomes, passionate hugs and amazing energy! When I saw the candles and crystals, I knew I was home! The daily quotes are so powerful and speak to the soul. The feeling of safety is unmatched! I love it here!”
— Latoya C.
“The Drop In welcomed me with open arms with ZERO spin experience. I was hooked immediately by their accepting and non "cliquey" nature. They've helped me grow not only athletically, but personally as well. This is the place for newbies!!!! They made a vulnerable new experience feel easy and fun, and for that I am so grateful! I immediately quit my other gym and am now more than 100 classes in. If you are new to cycling or mat workouts, or an experienced athlete just looking for a place to fit in, this is it.”
