Wednesday 7.30pm - Gwo Yang

In both classes, a heavy empasis on basic isolations, footwork and muscle control is covered in the curriculum. In addition, an overall appreciation for hip hop culture and its many forms will be gained as students learn about the culture and music within the hip hop community. Students will learn to listen to the music and follow the various beats and rhythms. West Coast, East Coast, Funk, Popular Hip Hop Hits, Old School… are among the flavors of music students will learn to appreciate. A physical vocabulary will be taught to accompany the listening skills gained from the class. Students in this class will begin to develop skills to innovate for themselves and have the tools to enjoy the dance culture in ways they have not previously experienced. Both Wednesday and Sunday class have the same course description, with Sunday being a little easier and more focused towards multigenerational classes.
