PROGRAMS FOR SCHOOLS

108Interest in Hip Hop Dance has sky-rocketed, fueled by the popularity of shows like So You Think You Can Dance and America’s Best Dance Crew. Children and youth are captivated by the superb athleticism of the dancers on these shows and motivated to emulate the moves they see performed. Educators can use this interest to engage students in a healthy physical activity, particularly those who are less interested in sports.
