Hip Hop
Hip Hop culture consists of four main elements: graffiti art, break dancing, DJing and emceeing. The 2 main categories of Hip Hop dance are Old School and New Style Hiphop. Old School consists of locking, popping, breaking and wave. New Style Hip Hop is unique on its own and usually goes hand in hand with slower pace songs. Hip Hop is all about rhythm, groove and a whole lot of flavor!

L.A / Lyrical
Put a punctuation mark into Hip Hop!

This New Style Hip Hop is characterized as hard-hitting involving flexibility, isolations combined with milking techniques. It is very rhythmic and emphasis is placed on musicality.

Lyrical Hip Hop is a fluid and more interpretive version of New Style Hip Hop most often danced to down-tempo rap music or R&B music. Get trained in full body control!

Reggae
Reggae is an African Caribbean style of music developed on the island of Jamaica. The word “Reggae” was coined around 1960 to identify a “ragged” style of dance music.

Popping
Popping revolves around the technique of hitting: continuous flexing of the muscles to the beat while executing precise and funky angles. This gives off an illusion of a jolting effect.

Throw in some rolls and moves like ‘the Wave’ and ‘the Glide’, and you’ll be taken back to the funky Old School!

Locking
Locking is created by Don ‘Campbellock’ Campbell in the late 1960s during the soul / funk era. It was developed around the concept of a series of quick movements flowing into sudden stops and pauses. Locking is a fun-filled dance style which never fails to bring out the funk in your soul.

So pull up your socks and get your groove on!
