About this Event
Class Description:
This workshop is designed to warm up the body using strong, foundational hip hop steps that prepare dancers physically and mentally for movement. We’ll start with an intentional warm-up built from basic hip hop grooves, bounces, and footwork to activate the body, build rhythm, and develop coordination. Some of these same steps will be used directly in the choreography, allowing dancers to build muscle memory and move more confidently and naturally. The class will also focus on musicality, training the ear to recognize beats, accents, and rhythms within the music. Throughout the workshop, dancers will develop better body control, timing, and flow while staying grounded in hip hop foundations. The overall goal is for dancers to leave feeling more connected to their movement, more confident in their basics, and more aware of how their body responds to music.
