DDI offers commercial hip-hop classes for ages 6 and up (and hip-hop tots for ages 3-5). Commercial style hip-hop dance is inspired by the many street dance techniques developed by the Hip-Hop culture. Commercial hip-hop choreography often tells a story and uses high energy movement to express powerful emotions. This style can be seen on TV, film, & in music videos by today’s latest Hip-Hop music artists!
At DDI, students will learn movement and choreography that draws from the many hip-hop street techniques such as Popping, Locking, House, Freestyle Hip-Hop, Breaking, Krumping, Waacking, and Funk. Exercises performed in these classes will increase strength, muscle tone, musicality and stamina. Freestyle will promote camaraderie and community amongst the dancers while allowing the individual dancer to explore and express their unique skills and passion.
Students will perform in the Winter Showcase in December and formal end of season Recital in June.
