Contemporary Hip Hop

Explore hip hop dance and its cultural and artistic connectivity to the world around us. This class is an opportunity to delve deeper and expand how we utilize, think about, and describe movement. The goal is to find the connection between hip hop dance and “concert dance” and to find the “concert dance” in hip hop.
