WHAT IS A TRAINING CLASS?
A training class is designed to introduce students to the foundation of a given style of dance; from House, Funk, animation, hip hop and even choreography. Each week the student will learn a new combination and series of techniques that help them understand and accelerate their learning in that style of dance.
WHY TAKE A TRAINING CLASS?
Unlike a regular drop-in class or competitive class where the student learns a routine at a faster pace, the training class hones in on a specific style of dance that the student is interested in and allows them to increase their ability in that style much quicker through repetitive execution of techniques, moves, and grooves. At the same time, taking a training class will provide a student with priority enrollment into a corresponding competitive class by showing their commitment to learning and training in a specific style. We want to show that the most successful student is not the one with the most talent, but the one who is most willing to learn and practice. This commitment is recognized by giving the student access to a competitive class they want automatically without fear of being cut due to their current dance skill or ability.
Do I have to take a Training class to get into a competitive class?
Although it is RECOMMENDED that students take certain training classes to enroll into their competitive classes, this is not mandatory. Beside each class description there is also it’s recommended training classes. Students who choose to bundle their classes and enroll in a recommended Training class will be given priority should that competitive class become full.
As hip hop teachers and educators, we encourage our students to pursue their knowledge and technique as far as possible and this is why we reward those students who show the greatest dedication to this pursuit. The goal with this new system is to further our students education and dance foundation so that they may see greater skill growth than the student who focuses solely on a competitive path. We hope that all our students will see the value in this next necessary step in their hip hop dance careers.
