About this Event
Keeping in context with hip-hop culture, the event features a DJ, emcee, and three judges from different dance styles, who also showcase their own dance expertise, and teach workshops open to our students and the community. The battle ends with open cyphering, a dance circle where all audience members are welcome to dance together. Our judges have come from New York City, Cleveland, Philadelphia, Buffalo, Rochester, and more. This year, special guest judge Ephrat "Bounce" Asherie will be joining as a guest judge.
