From the backing dancers in hit music videos to the electric performances in global dance movies, Street Dance is the ultimate expression of modern youth culture. Rather than a single style, Street Dance is a powerful umbrella term that encompasses an entire culture of dynamic, world famous dance disciplines.
Born organically on the streets in highly social environments, this art form is bright, high energy, and completely informal. It is the perfect, vibrant alternative for students who crave a less rigid, more contemporary way to move.
The Styles We Explore
Our classes dive into the rich variety of foundational and modern genres that define the global urban dance scene:
~ Hip-Hop & Commercial: The definitive styles seen in modern pop music videos, focusing on rhythm, performance, and current trends.
~ Breakdance: Athletic floor work, power moves, and freezes that build incredible core strength.
~ Popping & Locking: Funk driven techniques using sharp body isolations, muscular contractions, and comedic flair.
~ Tutting & House: Intricate, geometric hand/arm patterns combined with fast, fluid footwork.
Why Choose Street Dance?
~ Ultimate Self Expression: Unlike classical genres that require following strict, standard movements, Street Dance empowers you to develop your own unique freestyle and personal artistic flair.
~ Technically Demanding: While it is incredibly fun and informal, don’t be fooled, Street Dance is highly physical. It demands sharp coordination, power, and stamina.
~ The Perfect First Step: Its accessible, casual, and high vibe atmosphere makes it a fantastic entry point for children and teens who might not feel drawn to traditional ballet or tap.
