Knights of Peter Claver & Ladies Auxiliary Presents: "2-Step Class"

Get ready to vibe, slide, and two-step your way into summer at our free Kansas City 2-Stepping Class, where community meets culture surrounded by the rich heritage of KC’s jazz district.

Hosted by the Knights of Peter Claver & Ladies Auxiliary Council and Court #57, this isn’t just a dance lesson—it’s an afternoon of rhythm, energy, and good times. Leading the groove is De Barker, KC’s reigning “Queen of Line Dance and the Kansas City 2-Step,” bringing her signature flair and feel-good moves to every beat.

No experience? No problem—whether you’re a dance-floor pro or just looking to try something new, all are welcome. This class is free to attend, but registration is required. We also invite you to bring a school supply donation—such as notebooks, pencils, glue sticks, crayons, folders, scissors, tissues, or hand sanitizer—to benefit local students. Be sure to register and complete the waiver so we can keep things smooth and safe. Bring a friend, and let’s move, connect, and celebrate KC culture together!
