Summary: Hip hop dancing covers a large range of styles and specific moves and techniques, but the cornerstone of the style is undoubtedly break dancing. Over time, that so-called old school way of dancing and participating in hip hop culture has evolved into many different off-shoots. Funk dancing, popping and locking, jigging, freaking, krump, and hyphy are examples of types of hip hop dance, and each style contains certain moves that distinguish it from other forms. Many people take hip hop dance lessons, and although some people believe that teaching orchestrated steps is contrary to the roots of the culture and history of hip hop dance, many people benefit from taking lessons.

In this free dance video series, a professional instructor will teach you numerous intermediate hip hop dance moves and how to put them together in combinations.
