Classes

Hip Hoppin' Tots (4 and 5 year olds)
This class is an early introduction to the Hip Hop style of dance. The music will be upbeat set the pace for the class. We will work on dance, music, and social skills, and continue to improve coordination.

Hip Hop (1st – 8th grades)
This is one of the most popular styles of dance right now! It is a vibrant, energetic, urban dance style. This class never has a dull moment. It is a fun way to get exercise and is perfect for all levels of dancers.

Hip Hop Explosion (High school students)
Every class will start with a stretch and warm-up, then work on technique and finish with a short routine. The routine will be different every class, which allows students to learn and improve on different styles of hip hop, and also not fall behind if a class in missed (due to that super busy high school schedule every student has).
