Here’s what participants are saying about RikudDC:

"You meet good people. It's good fun...It's invigorating to dance." -Guy Margalith, 29, State Department

“RikudDC is my favorite time of the week.  I get to hang out with (now) old friends from all walks of life, and meet new people who happen to drop by.  The regulars are all very welcoming, and happy to embrace anyone new who wants to join in their fun.  All in all, it’s a great time.”
-Noah Glushakow-Smith, Senior Physics major, University of Maryland
