The event consists of a 60 minute training session followed by a 90 minute 1v1 practice breaking battle. Typically the event 2nd Sunday of every month from 5:00pm-7:00pm but it is subject to change depending on the schedule.

Monthly Painting Party
Every fourth Fridays, we hold a monthly community painting party! Stop by from 9:00pm to midnight. Suggested donation is $10 to replenish supplies and support the space.
Guided Freestyle Hip Hop Sessions and Open Cyphers
Weekly guided freestyle, hip hop sessions are held Mondays from 7:30pm-9:30pm. Started by Abbey (and currently facilitated by Tiana), the first 45 to 60 minutes will be a guided session led by a different member of the dance community each week. During this time, dancers will collectively explore new drills, concepts, and ideas that we can implement into your freestyle. The rest of the session will be an open lab to exchange, connect, and grow together. Music that is played is typically hip hop. All styles and experience levels are welcomed and encouraged!
Guided sessions and open cyphers are different from normal classes and are $7 at the door. All proceeds go to Mi Chantli.
Writer’s Block
Every Wednesday at 9:00pm, we hold weekly free poetry writing workshops. Each week we have a different poet from the community come through and give us prompts an other writing actives for the first half of the night. Then we spend the second half of the night sharing our poems with each other in a supportive and loving environment. We hope to see you at Mi Chantli from 9:00pm-10:30pm on Wednesdays!

Grupo Mexica Tlahuitzcalli is a traditional Aztec dance group based out of Boulder County. Grupo Tlahuitzcalli hosts a Danza circle every Thursday at 6:30pm at Mi Chantli for other danza relatives and folks seeking to reclaiming their indigenous identity. People are welcome to observe.
