Robbie Fraleigh teaches the free weekly dance classes at the municipal building in downtown State College with the help of his girlfriend, Dana Ray.
Robbie Fraleigh - I love dancing and I love seeing people learn how to dance. As far as a business plan, I do private lessons and other things like that. And I teach for the university. This is just my private little pet project.
Dana Ray - We see a lot of grad students and we see a lot of young professionals. People who are trying to figure out where they fit in this community. We have aged way out of the downtown bar scene, so what does that mean about meeting people and making friends and making connections. So it’s not just about dance, it’s really about the connections we’ve made with each other and the friendships that we’ve built.
