Christal Brown

I really enjoyed this class. I loved that there were two aspects to it, learning the history of dance and actually dancing. I loved getting to be active and learning new things. Christal is super funny and makes class interactive and is passionate about what she does.

I really didn’t enjoy this class. I found Christal to be one of the least accommodating professors I’ve had; it often felt like she played favorites, and grading didn’t always reflect the effort or time put into your work; this especially applies to the group dance and the solo final, where she never explains how you are being graded. Attendance is strict, and even missing class due to illness can hurt your grade. She comes across as rude at times, even though she tries to frame it as dry humor. Overall, the class was frustrating and didn’t feel like a supportive environment, and I would never do it again.

This is my favorite class I have taken in my life! Christal not only is knowledgable about dance, but also gives great career and life advice. She has helped so many students in our class with internships and projects outside of dance class. Her class is constantly entertaining, and always the highlight of my day. It always gets you energized, and is a welcoming space to explore your creativity and become more in touch with your body. There is no experience required, most people who take the class are not dancers, which is really nice to feel pressure in class to be "good" at dancing. Christal is amazing at making the space fun and i've learned so much about dance and life.
