Hip-Hop

Hip-Hop culture, born in the vibrant streets of New York City during the late 1970s, emerged as a beacon of self-expression and empowerment for the youth, particularly in marginalised communities. Hip-Hop draws from the dance styles of Popping, Locking, and Breaking to form a distinct and widely recognized street dance. This class pushes dancers with high-energy movements and rhythm-driven combinations, promoting personal expression while honoring the roots of Hip-Hop culture.
