Beginner Hip Hop
Taught by Melissa Archer

This class is designed for beginners and will explore the basics of hip-hop dance technique. While the class is high-energy, the atmosphere is low-key - perfect for anyone who has ever felt inspired to move to a hip-hop beat. Each class will begin with an aerobic warm up, transition into technical movement instruction, and conclude with a short piece of choreography. The emphasis of this class is on learning to move in a new way - and having fun!

Time:  Sundays, 12-1:30 pm starting January 8
Cost:  $12
Location:  2030 Frankford Ave
Drop-ins welcome

Come dressed to move. Sweat pants/ stretchy pants and sneakers highly recommended.

Instructor:
Melissa Archer first fell in love with hip-hop dance at the age of nine. Throughout the past thirteen years she has studied under many well-known Philadelphia dancers. She received a minor in dance from Temple University and was a dancer for Temple’s hip-hop and reggae company, By Any Means Necessary. Melissa’s choreography encompasses a variety of styles ranging from locking and breakin’ to more contemporary forms of hip-hop. As a dance instructor, Melissa aims to pass on her knowledge of authentic hip-hop dance and create a fun experience for beginner dancers.
