Classes
Hip Hop I-V
The focus of our Hip Hop classes is to introduce, engage, and encourage through urban movement using trendy and popular rhythms to a variety of beats and sounds. An introduction to what hip hop really is and how it affects daily movement. Engage students with the movement from popular and current hip-hop styles. Encourage students to continue with the new knowledge of movement and appreciation for new musicality and movement.
Adult Hip Hop
Each class starts with mental relaxation (as your mind is just as important in dance as the body). Then moves into appropriate stretches and callisthenics to release stress in the body. Our adult class movement consists of beginner yet challenging combos to music familiar to OUR time period, age and entertainment level. Classes are designed to burn calories, elevate healthy heart rates, and most importantly...have FUN!
