Is your kid is curious about “break dancing”? Whether your child has no experience breakin’, has learned some moves from Rae’s Kids Dance Jam, or just makes up their own moves at home, this class is designed to help kids build a breakin’ foundation. Will explore a little of breakin’ history and terminology while learning moves that can be combined in a variety of ways. We will not do back flips or spin on our heads. If your child has tons of breakin’ experience then this class is not recommended. This class is best for beginners or those looking to work on their foundation. This class focuses on safety and execution instead of trying to out perform each other.

Each class starts with a warm up that helps improve strength and flexibility which is important for executing power moves & freezes.

This is not a “workout” to hip hop music. At times students may stop dancing to watch a video clip of a dance move, or engage in class discussion.

While student song requests are encouraged we are unable to play songs that contain profanity even if these songs are an important part of hip hop music history. This class contains a variety of break dance and hip hop music.

Please wear pants and socks, as these make floor spins easier.

This class involves physical movement (all abilities are welcome). It is recommended for your child to have water nearby. Students should refrain from eating during class.

No homework, but students who practice outside of class will get more out of this course
