Straight from the Hip ...
“
From the moment I stepped through the door at Saffron Studio a year ago, I knew I had found my dance home. Saphira and the other faculty members went out of their way to give me and my fellow student’s hands on and personalized attention to help our dance grow and strengthen.”

“
Saffron is a gift I give myself each week. I dance with abandon. I dance with technique. I dance with a hipscarf. I just want to dance.
Cleaning supplies $11.
Hoda song on iTunes $1.
Hipscarf $40.
Wearing my hipscarf while doing house chores...priceless.”
