Popping/Locking
Breaking/BBoying
away from pure acrobatics back to dance!

Philosophy and origin of the dance forms Locking, Popping, and B-Boying are transmitted along with the basic techniques. Special emphasis is given to rhythm and to musicality. Most skills require many years of practice - Storm explains the way to get there through exercises like Headspin, Windmill, Flares, Popps, etc. The short set routines incorporate a lot of partner work. In the last part of class Storm will answer questions and explain more specific techniques.
