What We Do

Imparting a love of dance since 2001.

Hip Hop is a popular, high-energy dance that combines isolations, strength, coordination, and style. Whether your child is looking to pick up a few moves, get some exercise, meet new friends, build self-esteem, or just have a lot of fun, we’ve got it all wrapped in a beginner-friendly 45 min. class that promises to challenge the children while still allowing for a solid and fun introduction to dance. Our classes will challenge every kind of dancer to enjoy the love of movement!

Hip Hop Hooray is a creative, fun, and unique after school dance program that runs throughout the school year and accommodates children in four age groups. It is a terrific introduction to dance without adding to the parent’s hectic routine as classes are offered right at their school during aftercare hours.

Each class builds on the last creating our routines to be performed at our End-of-the-Year Showcase and/or other possible performances at their school. Each class starts with a warm-up, followed by choreography taught to today’s hit music, and is concluded with a fun team game. Not convinced just yet? Our music is also carefully reviewed and “cleaned” by a DJ and all routines are approved by the Creative Director and age appropriate! Routines combine new and old school moves and techniques to create upbeat pieces for everyone to enjoy. 

We are aiming to teach so much more than just Hip-Hop.  Our “surprise mission” is building these kids up to have high self-esteem, confidence, and a team-player mentality, which is beneficial in every aspect of their lives.

Classes are:
Structured and non-competitive to encourage progress in our students. Structured to incorporate fun into every lesson since children learn more when they are enjoying themselves. We focus on improvements and praise the children for their efforts and achievements.

Age Groups:

Juniors – K through 2nd (Currently offered at six Elementary Schools)

Seniors – 3rd through 5th (Currently offered at six Elementary Schools)

Masters  – 6th through 8th (Currently offered at one Middle School – Please contact us for more information on this class)
