Transfers ToNot transferableDescriptionThis pre-performance level hip-hop course advances acquired techniques, and knowledge of a complete hip-hop class, with an emphasis on the development of stylistic nuances in performance. Artistic development of performance components is applied to acquired skills and techniques learned in previous studies of hip-hop. Students apply knowledge of hip-hop, terminology, dancer technique and training, character, musical phrasing, and performance skills to existing dance technique vocabulary for the purpose of stage performance preparation. Exploration of hip-hop dance trends, including music and movement styles, will be discussed. Performance practice prepares students for real world performance opportunities, and solidifies the student's appreciation of hip-hop as a performing art form. (GE Area - CSU GE: E)
