Street dance is a fusion of many styles, from hip hop, Old Skool, Commercial, and Jazz using a wide range of music from pop to r&b and hip-hop as well as other styles of music. This is a practical course where we will work on improving your dance technique and vocabulary, working on your style and approach, learning isolated movements, body rolls, popping, tutting and the many forms of footwork and current dance crazes.
There will be floor work and tricks but this is optional. The main aim is to provide a fun practical environment where you can learn essential technique, improve dance and performance skills as well as your own confidence and having fun whilst you do it.

Course programme

Each lesson will start with a full body group warm-up, isolations, arm and footwork combinations, followed by corner to corner / co-ordination / technical / turn exercises. There is a chance at the end of the lesson to dance your routine whilst the tutor watches, coaches and provides feedback. Some floor work may be used in class, alongside core and body strengthening.

You will be taught together in a group, with individual pieces being worked on in front of the group so that you learn from each other’s performances as well as your own. This is a fun dance class that is guaranteed to get your energy pumping. There is no homework however we will encourage self practice. HEALTH CHECK You may or may not be asked to participate in rigorous activity from time to time. Please consider whether you could do this, if you are in any doubt consult a medical practitioner.
