The new space, which we told you about at the end of February, is a dance studio that offers classes in yoga, barre fitness and other experimental arts.

Although you can see the building from 11th Street, the actual entrance for The Whole Shebang is through back, which you can access through the Neumann-Goretti parking lot.

Once you enter the facility in the back, there’s a flight of stairs before you access The Whole Shebang. There’s a small hallway with information on classes and performances.

If you’re interested in taking a class in the space, it costs $15 per session, or $10 per session if you purchase a dancepass.

In the future, the facility hopes to offer more classes and workshops from international artists, in addition to small aesthetic changes throughout the space. They also hope to create a green roof, which would also be accessible those using the facility.
