What is hip hop dance?
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.
What should you wear to a hip hop dance class?
Most dance studios recommend you wear comfortable clothes and sneakers with non-marking soles to learn hip hop dance.

Wear closed toed shoes that are comfortable, supportive, and have grippy soles. Check with your dance studio for their specific clothing requirements.

Reviews for Stamford hip hop dance classes
Recent success stories from people in the Stamford area.
Anne D.
I have trained with many dance instructors as an amateur dance student and I can without a doubt say that my dancing improved 100% while working with Alex. We worked together for several years and danced several styles including International Ballroom, American Smooth and Rhythm, Social, and numerous showcases. My dancing and performance abilities improved and this resulted in a significant increase in my competitive results and positive feedback from judges and coaches. Alex is able to break down areas of difficulty and give memorable analogies to assist with the learning process. I have been blessed to work with him!

I loved the personal attention I got from my DPRdance Lessons. I spent time one on one with an instructor who developed our lesson plans for my personal needs! At one point I wanted to bring friends in for a group lesson, and they set the class up for me no problem!

Vuk was my first dance instructor. I started at 60 years of age at a time that was very difficult in my life . He made things easier and taught me well. Gave me a solid foundation of ballroom dancing. Gave me the courage and strength to perform in a showcase and compete on the dancefloor. His easy manner and "you can do anything" attitude has not only made dancing a part of my life but has given me the insight to look at other thing that seemed beyond my grasp and try my hand at them. He is an amazing young man who is a great teacher and dancer.

I have worked with Christie for 2 years now. I have taken her class, I have danced in her dance pieces, I've worked for her school, and she's has great qualities in all of those roles. First of all she's a great human being, she is a very dedicated teacher, very positive, very professional, starts classes on time, gives her best, very creative on how to approach students of different ages, and makes sure the students understand the lesson. I think part of the reason why her students love her so much is because she's very positive, loving to her students, and she communicates with them, she talks to them, she hears their ideas, thoughts, she gives them space to be heard, creative and encourages them in every step of the way.
As a choreographer she's very creative, very hardworking, very organized. She's respectful, appreciative and friendly to her dancers.
I loved being her dancer.
