As hiphop is an individual style, no partner is required.
The dance style
Hip Hop dance style originated as part of the whole Hip Hop culture that started in the early 70s in New York. Originally it started with break dancing and with a different type of Hip Hop music, it branched out with a more social or party dance including moves as the Running Man and the Happy feet. As of now 'Hip Hop' classes often have a mix of all kinds of styles depending on the background of the teacher. Our Hip Hop teacher teaches choreographies, with movements and techniques that can be traced to Hip Hop and street styles.
