He will be teaching classes in jazz funk, hip-hop, contemporary lyrical and jazz technique to intermediate and senior level dancers.
It runs from 5-10 p.m. It costs $85.
McGrath has danced in the another Janet Jackson music video, the song So Excited, and worked as a principal dancer on Britney Spears' Onyx Hotel tour. He also has appeared on reality television shows So You Think You Can Dance? and MTV's Dancelife.
