Directions

Coming from Colorado Springs or Old Colorado City:

Go west on Colorado Blvd towards Manitou (name may have changed to Manitou Ave. depending on the map you look at). You’ll turn right (north) at the traffic light at Beckers Lane so you’ll be turning in between the motel and the Chinese restaurant. Continue north going past the skate park until you come to the stop sign at El Paso. Look towards your left and you’ll see a one story, dark red stucco building (the dance studio shares the building with The Hair Emporium)… this is 65 Beckers Lane.
