FAQs
Where are classes held?
Classes are held at 1101 13th Street, Denver, CO 80204 on the third floor across the street from downtown’s Arts Complex.
What parking options are available?
There is metered street parking around our building and the city owned Denver Performing Arts Complex parking garage is located across the street. Information about other garages in the area can be found here on our website.
