Hip hop dance classes cost $15 to $30+ per class for a single group class for adults, or $8 to $12 per class if you're buying 4+ group classes at a time.

Hip hop dance classes for kids cost $60 to $200 per month, depending on the studio, class length, and the number of classes per week. Kids' dance classes typically require yearly registration—often with a non-refundable registration fee of $25 to $50—monthly tuition, and extra fees toward the end of the season for recital costumes.

• Private hip-hop dance classes cost $50 to $85 per hour on average. Some studios also offer semi-private lessons so you can enjoy more personalized instruction with a smaller group of 2 to 4 students.
• Online hip-hop dance classes cost $10 to $35+ per month for a subscription-based service for live classes, pre-recorded classes, or both. Some websites charge by the class, with classes costing $5 to $10 each.

Hip hop dance is a popular "street style" dance performed mostly to hip hop music, with rocking and bouncing movements choreographed to the rhythm of the music beats. Hip hop dance is a high energy style that involves elements of several dance styles, including African dance, ballet, and tap, but typically has a more free and flexible structure.

Most dance studios recommend you wear comfortable clothes and sneakers with non-marking soles to learn hip hop dance. If your studio doesn't specify the attire, workout clothes, like yoga pants or sweat pants and a t-shirt usually work well for a hip hop class. Wear closed toed shoes that are comfortable, supportive, and have grippy soles. Check with your dance studio for their specific clothing requirements.
