Darlene Zoller is the Co-Founder and Co-Artistic Director of Playhouse on Park in West Hartford, CT. On March 17, 2020, Darlene offered her first dance class on Facebook Live, now known as "We're Better When We're Dancing!" The Stay at Home Order had just gone into effect, and she decided to offer a free virtual dance/exercise class for anyone who wanted to join. Those who tuned in were grateful for the much-needed distraction during a time of uncertainty and fear. So, she offered a class again the next day, and the day after that, and the rest is history. On March 16, 2021, Darlene will celebrate her 365th day of consecutive dance classes on Facebook Live!

Darlene's daily classes have become a staple for so many people throughout the pandemic. Whether they participate along with her, or just have her on in the background, it is nice to know that someone is there. She has received amazing feedback over the past year, and was even spotlighted by Facebook itself for her 200th consecutive day back in October! Darlene continues to uplift a growing number of loyal Facebook Live watchers every day. Want to join in on the fun?
