Beginners Hip Hop Dance Class

Our ‘Hip Hop’ classes are based around the old school and nu-school styles of dance and choreography.

Spanning the genres and eras from 70’s and 80’s Locking, Popping, Waacking and even a little of the less acrobatic side of Breaking. Moving (and shaking) all the way to present day Krumping and Nu-Style, you can learn the moves of the likes of Flawless, Zoo Nation, Diversity and the style of Chris Brown, Usher and Nicki Minaj.

These techniques will be taught against classic and recent Hip Hop music. Which makes the class up-to-date and contemporary,  providing you with the perfect backdrop to progress as a Hip Hop dancer.

Something to Think About

As with all dance classes there are a few additional things to think about:

Footwear and Clothing
Recommended are trainers/ jazz boots or jazz shoes.
(Specialised stockists such as Gamba Freed and Dancia which have outlets in and around London can provide appropriate footwear)

Comfortable clothing such as leggings, jazz pants, tight tracksuit bottoms, shorts, crop tops, tight t-shirts are recommended.

It's hot work too, so bring a bottle.
