HIP-HOP CULTURE

As we represent a deep history behind our name, we want to acknowledge that the vast majority of our dance knowledge we learn (namely, Hip-Hop, House, Popping, Locking) and share with others today is rooted from the rich and complex history of black culture. Let's work together to not only do it for the clout but empower knowledge and respect others!

Hip-Hop culture was established in the Bronx , New York by DJ Kool Herc in the mid-1970s.
