D. D. says, "As I think upon the dance instruction I’ve received through Uwe and Colleen for over seven years now, it’s with thankfulness for the skills they’ve taught me in social dance (Cross-Step Waltz, Nightclub Two-Step, and East Coast Swing, specifically), and for getting to be part of the dance community they’ve created. I so look forward to Tuesday evenings when I can be back in class and with my regular dance friends there." Read more

Nila says, "Stas is a brilliant, inspiring world-class instructor, and taking his class is a must for any dance lovers. He has his own unique method, which allows students to learn several dances with similar steps simultaneously, and when you leave each class being able to dance 5-6 dances you never knew you could, it feels incredibly empowering. As a teacher, Stas is meticulous, patient, encouraging, allowing sufficient time for review and practice in each class. But it is more than technique that makes his classes stand out. Stas truly created a community, the community where everybody feels welcome regardless of one's level. Above all, his classes constantly remind you that teaching is art and dance is a miracle."

Michelle S. says, "To sum it up: Daniel is amazing. He made the experience so much fun, is so kind and easy to learn from and he is so encouraging. My dad and I were taking lessons for my wedding and had such a great time that my fiancé wanted to take lessons too- and we did! None of us had ever really danced before but we came out feeling excited about the wedding dances and not anxious. I can’t wait to show everyone what we can do now! Highly recommended even if you’re a noob like we were and just want to have some fun. " Read more

Your hip hop dance questions, answered

Answers to commonly asked questions from the experts on Lessons.

How much do hip hop dance classes cost?

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. Geographic location and studio or instructor reputation also affect the price. Some studios offer an "unlimited classes" 30-day pass for $165 to $200.

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.

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. 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.

How do I choose the best hip hop dance class near me?

Hip hop dance classes are a great way to get mental and physical exercise, socialize, and just have fun. To ensure you're choosing the best hop dance class near you, remember to:

  • Go with a dance studio that is licensed, insured, and has been in business 5+ years.
  • Browse their profile and reviews on Lessons.com and Google.
  • Review their website for scheduling information, dress code details, and photos or videos.
  • Read all contract terms before signing.

What questions should I ask when searching for hip hop dance classes?

Asking the following questions can help you choose the best hip hop dance class:

  • Do you offer classes for beginners?
  • What is your class schedule?
  • Do you have drop-in classes?
  • Can I buy one class at a time?
  • Do you have any package deals or new student offers?
  • What is your cancellation policy?
  • If I'm running late, can I still get into the class?
  • Do you offer private lessons?
  • What methods of payment do you take?
  • What is the dress code?
  • What type of shoes should I wear?

Richard R.
I would be amiss if I didn’t give a special acknowledgment to Colleen Suzanne. She was able to teach me the steps that I wished to learn while building my confidence. She taught with unfailing kindness, enthusiasm and patience. Uwe and Colleen are a wonderful team; intellect and heart. But I’ve also been in numerous dance classes when Colleen was the primary instructor. She is a fantastic teacher. And my wife and I have had privates with her as well. It is with a sense of gratitude that I say that I would recommend her. If you want to learn to dance and have fun doing it, try Colleen!

My husband and I started taking lessons from Stas in early May and he's got us absolutely addicted. We even bought shoes! Stas has a great and inviting teaching style that appeals to both men and women. We are continuing to learn new steps each class and improve the ones we already have. We look forward to years of lesson with Stas.

The owners are super friendly and know dance. They have some great classes with primo instructors and Lisa will create a custom class and teach it if one does not exist. She is an outstanding teacher, very clear instructions, styling , and tips to really enjoy dancing. She can analyze a problem, find a solution and break it down into doable steps. She also is very kind and fun which certainly helps me as dance is a challenge. I'd highly recommend her for lessons.
