Midlife Shuffle Retreats
Small-group shuffle retreats for dancers ready to build, refine, and grow beyond regular classes.
Step away from the screen and into a full weekend of focused coaching, new combos, personalized feedback, movement, meals, and community —
all inside Shanon’s private Midway, Utah studio.
Whether you’re building beyond Foundations or ready for more complex
choreography and performance-level work, each retreat is designed to
meet you where you are and move you forward.
Yes, You Can Come Back
In fact, many dancers do.
Because each retreat has a different theme and different content, repeat attendance is encouraged. You are not “repeating a level.” You are returning to continue building skill, confidence, and depth within the right track.
One Expansion Retreat might focus heavily on directionals and pathways. Another might focus on foundational variations.
One Mastery Retreat might be built around shapes and turns. Another might center on choreography, speed, or performance polish.
Same track. New work. New growth.

The Retreat Experience
These weekends are not giant dance conventions. They are small, personal, focused retreats built for adult dancers who want real coaching and real progress.
You’ll dance a lot. You’ll laugh a lot. You’ll probably hit a moment where your brain says, “Absolutely not.” And then you’ll work through it.
That’s the point.
The retreat environment gives you time to slow down, clean things up, ask questions, get feedback, and experience what happens when you spend an entire weekend immersed in your shuffle journey.
