Introduction To HipHop Its Dances

AY2017/2018 Semester 2

How many times have you wondered- what exactly is Hip-Hop? Over this course, learners will be exposed to how the Hip-Hop culture we know of today, born in the mid-1970s in an impoverished section of New York City, found its way to the mass media and mainstream population and evolved into a multi-million dollar industry. Emphasis will be placed on learning about roots of Hip-Hop, particularly its dances. Participants will learn to dance to the rhythm of music and be introduced to some common moves popularized by prominent dance pioneers.
