Walk with Forza Dance at Dance Parade NYC!

We’re beyond thrilled to announce that Forza Dance will be dancing in this year’s Dance Parade NYC on May 17, 2025 — and we want YOU to walk alongside us!

 

Dance Parade is NYC’s largest dance event, with over 10,000 dancers representing 100+ styles from around the world — and we’re proud to bring our Italian-American roots and all-female powerhouse energy to the streets of Manhattan. Our piece is set to “Bella Ciao,” a historic anthem of freedom and resistance first sung by Italian women field workers during wartime — reimagined through movement as a call for joy, liberation, and unity.

 

Whether you’re a longtime Forza friend or brand new to our community, you’re invited to join us as we take over the streets for this unforgettable day of dance, celebration, and connection.

 

Walk with us and get:
- A free Forza tank top
- A free movement class with Forza
- Pizzaaaaa!
- The chance to dance through Manhattan with a fun crew!

 

Call time for walkers is 11:30 AM — and you’re welcome to stay for as long or little as you’d like.
The parade ends with DanceFest in Tompkins Square Park — don’t miss the post-parade fun! Sign up here!
