Hip Hop Dance
Hip Hop is seen primarily on TV during
rap and R & B music videos. It is a form that evolved out of
street and break dancing moves,
and is characterized by its vigorous athletics and bouncy style. Hip
Hop is danced primarily to Hip Hop, Rap and R & B music,
and knee pads are needed for all levels above basic. Colorado Academy
of the Arts features the diversity of several different street
dance styles, so that students can incorporate many different
"looks" into their own movement vocabulary.
