A group of adults practices dance in a large studio. In the foreground, a woman wearing a white sleeveless top and bright pink pants stretches sideways with one hand on the floor and one arm extended overhead. Other dancers behind her mirror the movement, with their arms raised or bodies leaning to the side. The studio has a polished dark floor, high exposed beams, large windows, and black curtains.
