Service Description

This urban dance style has its roots in street dancing and follows a strong rhythmic, high energy vibe. It originated in the streets of The Bronx, New York City, in the late ‘70’s. Culturally it represents the freedom to learn, grow, and evolve and is performed “for the people, not the academy”. Hip-hop dance itself intrinsically evolved from hip-hop culture. (Think block parties, graffiti, DJs and MCs, b-boys and b-girls.) The techniques started out as predominantly unique freestyle movements - complex foot work and body isolations performed mainly to hip-hop/rap music, but over time has also evolved to “new style” hip-hop which is more focused on being choreographed versus improvisational.

Cancellation Policy

DROP-IN CLASSES Please remember that our classes are often sold-out. When dancers who are unsure of their availability book classes to reserve a spot, and then cancel at the last minute, this often takes an opportunity away from someone else who was able to commit to the class time. Dancers are expected to attend classes that they have registered for. We require 48 hours notice for cancellation of drop-in classes for refund or class pass credit. Please contact us for an e-transfer refund or to apply your credit to your account, as we do not monitor payment types for cancellations. Classes that were purchased using class pass credits will be automatically refunded to your account. We understand that unforeseen extenuating circumstances may occur, and we will do our best to accommodate you, however; cancellations with less than 48 hours notice will not be refunded or credited.
