Hip Hop Classes In Adelaide Near Me

4worldlovers: Hip Hop was developed in the streets of New York in the late 70’s and exploded commercially in the early 80’s.

The true form of hip hop dance is Breakdancing. It was a way in which the youth of the day could express themselves through battling each other through breakdancing in the streets.

The unique aspect of hip hop dance is it is a freestyle form of dance created by the dancers improvisational skills.

The dance form then progressed into various Street Funk Styles of Popping, Locking, Waving, Tutting, Ticking and Gliding.

The dance industry, birth of MTV and explosion of the Michael Jackson phenomenon of the early 80’s then used this style for video clips in the form of Jazz Funk.

These Hip Hop styles which are mainly used in commercial dance schools today are known as fad dances or popularised dance moves.

Today Hip Hop dance and culture has spread all over the world for everyone to enjoy and be a part of.

This has sprouted other hybrid dance forms such as Krumping, Regatton, Tecktonik, New Style and Lyrical Hip Hop and continues to change and evolve.

The Ballet/Tap was designed for children who have participated in early childhood development program previously and understand the teacher and student relationship. Ballet will be taught in a Fun and Friendly environment with the use of Ribbons, Hula Hoops, Wands and lots of imagination. Tap is lots of fun for the children to develop confidence and express themselves in a different style of dance. It is a lovely introduction to a more formal dance class in these genres and they work on a routine for each genre for the middle and end of year performances.


Our Ballet and Lyrical classes begin to look further into the specific terminology used in this genre. It is suitable for children coming from the Ballet/Tap class as well as beginners and intermediate skill levels. Flexibility and technique are also a focus, ensuring each student is achieving this in a manner that is safe for their bodies and understanding the purpose behind warming-up and using proper technique when dancing. We use a variety of traditional as well as modern music. The level of difficulty and expectations increase the older the age group as well as experience within the dancing community. We explore both the classical and contemporary genre in this class, working towards a routine for each genre for the middle and end of year performances.


Tap, is the next step for those students coming from the Ballet/Jazz/Tap special class as well as for beginners to the wonderful rhythmic world of Tap. We focus on introducing and developing tap techniques and terminology, mixing steps with traditional and modern musical rhythms. We still incorporate various props into class work, aiming to extend hand-eye co-ordination, rhythmic movement and overall balance and confidence in a safe and supportive manner. We work towards two routines for the middle and end of year performances.


This can be a great follow on step from the early childhood development class. It is sure to follow the energetic rhythm and beats of the younger classes, using a variety of props to enhance balance, spatial awareness, hand-eye co-ordination and body control in a safe and fun atmosphere, using fresh, modern hits of the year. At Dance Inc, we like to support the emotional development of our students as well as the physical. We aim to build a sense of camaraderie in all of our classes, more so in the older groups when friendships and support plays a large role in their lives.


In Hip Hop/Street dancing, we teach body movement and isolation for the Hip Hoppers to break it with lots of fun and fresh hip hop tunes. The class caters for a variety of ages and skill levels, with the aim to build a cohesive hip hop crew and group of friends. The students are always included in the development of skills and tricks learnt in class. The finality of all their hard work forms into two routines to be presented at the middle and end of year performances. We are hoping to engage in some workshops with local crews to further the interests of future b-boys and b-girls. Adding an extra element to their routines and dance development.
