An introduction into the vocabulary of Hip-hop social dance. Delivering the essence of the foundational moves into each movement while also discussing the intent and history behind each. While learning and implementing the foundation for your dance, we will go over your internal groove starting from a two-step into your own style of dance that is conveyed by your own groove. We'll dive into topics like how to listen to music on multiple levels going into a dive into musicality and implementing it within your dance. We'll also dive into how to dissect the music by instrument and apply it to your dance. Speaking on polyrhythms, pockets of music, and discovering how to freestyle and speak the language of dance with your artistry. Also, we'll go over how to string these moves and concepts together to create an image and to be able to create choreography of your own in the most vibrant and fluid of fashions.
