SCSTD Hip-Hop is one of our most popular programs! Former students have utilized their Hip-Hop training to appear on television, commercials, films, and with major recording artists! Hip-Hop originated as a free form of street dance, and each choreographer carries their own distinct style. Hip-Hop allows classes allow students to explore the vast world of hip-hop while enjoying age appropriate technique, styles, and music. Students love the rhythms, syncopated movements, and choreography which includes floorwork and centre work. All classes are high-energy and students love dancing to their favorite popular songs. Beginning students have a passion for developing and learning the latest steps and choreography. Everyone loves bringing their personality and attitude to the movement. Hip-hop explores accenting the body with the music and also allows work on improv skills. A basic introduction to popping, locking, breaking, house, and fusion styles will keep your interested and excited to come to class. Cardio stamina is also improved in this fast paced class. For the more advanced student, different styles will be explored and more intricate floorwork and choreography, including trick steps, will be covered. Come and enjoy a Hip-Hop class at SCSTD!
