Other details will be listed as they become available; rest assured we will be adding to this list! To answer some quick FAQs:

1) LEVELING: You can view our leveling resource video HERE. You can also take any of our "Retreat Leveled" classes free of charge on the On Demand section of our website. You will select your pointe level later, don't worry about that right now.
2) SCHEDULE: Our schedule is not set yet and all of this is subject to change. However, last year it looked like: 
M/T/Th/Fr dancing 10-4pm
W dancing 10-1pm
Photoshoots daily from 9-10am, plus Wednesday from 1:30-5pm
Tu/Th evening social events
3) HOTELS:
 We will have a host hotel. We don't know what it is yet. It will likely be between $200-300/night.
4) TRANSPORTATION: The KMF bus will run from the host hotel to the studios, and to/from most if not all social events. If you don't purchase a bus ticket, be prepared to rent a car, use ride shares, or carpool. Sometimes biking is accessible, walking often isn't.
5) STUDIO LOCATION: Retreat will be at the Dance Academy of Southern California. There is parking at the studio.
6) TRAVEL: John Wayne (SNA) is the closest airport. LAX is probably best for direct and international flights.

A note on public health: It’s important to us, and our community, that our events are safe environments for everyone. We will be asking all KMF event attendees to show a negative result from a proctored COVID test taken within 24 hours of the start of the event in order to participate. If you have a positive test result but are asymptomatic, you will be allowed to participate masked as outlined by the CDC here. We will be sending more details about COVID testing to attendees as we get closer to the event.
