New Orleans Bounce and Hip-Hop

About this class

New Orleans Bounce is a regional hip-hop style built on a call-and-response structure and a highly specific footwork vocabulary that developed in the city's housing projects in the late 1980s. This class teaches the foundational steps and body movements of Bounce alongside complementary hip-hop techniques, letting you understand the relationship between the regional style and the national form it grew alongside. No prior dance experience is needed and the class covers the moves at a pace that works for absolute beginners.
