Soul Street Dance

The four young male dancers of Soul Street Dance offer an educational and entertaining class demonstrating and teaching many types of street dance. Breakin’ (break dancing) or what was originally known as b-boyin’ and b-girlin’, was the second recognizable element of Hip Hop to come into existence. Once it became a fad, the competitions went to The Street and onlookers watched and cheered.

Soul Street Dance will work with students on various forms of street dance – such as power moves, weight sharing, b-boyin’ tricks, poppin’ n’ lockin’, tumbling and gymnastics.
