Class Descriptions
Afro'Dance class is a mixture of the new generation of African influences and street dance. In the class you will work on musicality heavily influenced by the rhythm and musical trends from The Congo, Ivory Coast, Angola... Urban street styles are incorporated into the backdrop of this heavily African based technique. The cultural, social, and free-spirited side of this class creates an environment where students dance, learn, have fun, and feel free.
This class will explore the social dance aspect of Hip-Hop focusing on rhythms, foundation, culture, and choreography. The class starts off with a warm-up by stretching out the body, followed by exercises and drills, focusing on groove, musicality, freestyle, and sometimes some history of Hip-Hop culture. The most important aspect of this class is DANCE, learning or relearning how to dance and take a dance class, in opposition to only executing Hip-Hop steps, and choreographies. Angel will support you to focus on yourself, your groove, your musicality, and your ability to move your body. This class is suitable for beginners and dance enthusiasts, as well as professionals and more advanced dancers who are looking to just vibe and enjoy a fun class!
