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.
