Street dance

Dances born on the street and in clubs — hip-hop, breaking, dancehall, K-pop, twerk and vogue: rhythm, groove and freestyle.

  • Hip-hop

    Hip-hop dance grew up in the Bronx, New York, in the 1970s, as part of hip-hop culture alongside DJing, rap and graffiti.

  • Breaking

    Breaking, often called breakdance, is one of the first dances of hip-hop culture and was born in the Bronx, New York.

  • Dancehall

    Dancehall comes from Jamaica, where it grew up together with dancehall music, which followed reggae.

  • K-pop dance

    K-pop dance is the choreography of South Korean pop groups, learned from their music videos and stage performances.

  • Twerk

    Twerk is a dance built on fast, rhythmic movements of the hips and glutes, while the rest of the body holds a low, stable position.

  • Vogue

    Vogue grew up in the ballroom culture of New York, created by Black and Latino LGBTQ+ communities, where dancers competed at events called balls.
