Fall 2026 - Intro to Hip Hop

Service Description

Build a strong foundation in hip hop through the grooves, footwork, and movement principles that define the style. Designed for dancers who are new to hip hop, this class introduces essential grooves, foundational footwork, rhythm, and body control in a supportive, progressive environment. Through drills, skill-building exercises, and accessible choreography, you'll develop coordination, musicality, and confidence while learning the movement vocabulary that serves as the foundation for more advanced hip hop training. Whether you're stepping into your first hip hop class or looking to strengthen your fundamentals, this class will help you build the skills needed to grow with confidence. ATTIRE: Wear comfortable athletic or dancewear that allows you to move freely. Whether you prefer joggers, cargo pants, leggings, shorts, oversized tees, fitted tops, or your favorite training gear, choose clothing that lets you move confidently and express your style. FOOTWEAR: Please wear clean sneakers that are dedicated to dance class and have not been worn outdoors. We recommend sneakers with a smooth, flexible sole and minimal tread to allow for safe pivoting, quick footwork, and ease of movement. Please avoid shoes with thick soles or deep tread, as they can limit movement and increase the risk of injury.
