HCA Hip Hop PDF Print E-mail

The Novice Level Hiphop class includes kids age 6-8. The class aims to develop a sense for rhythm and musicality. Beginning with learning how to isolate movement while grooving to the music, the kids also work with techniques such as freestyle and step, to grasp the true understanding and expression of the over all dance form. This class promotes fun, energy and athleticism.

The Junior Level Hiphop class is geared towards 9-12 years of age.  This beginner class focuses on popping and locking, isolations, principal breaking techniques and performance. We encourage a higher level of creativity in this class putting more of an emphasis on teaching how to groove to different flows and ultimately convey a fun energy to an audience. 

The Senior Level Hiphop class is for ages 13+. This beginner class will focus on musicality and athleticism.  The pace of the class is at a very high energy level and works specifically body control and isolation. The class will include elements of jazz, step, break dancing, pop and lock, house and krumping.
