Breakdance Program
The Funky House Breakdance Program is designed to develop strong foundations, musicality, body control, strength, creativity, confidence, and individual style.
Students learn that breaking is not only about tricks. The program develops complete dancers through technical foundations, rhythm, footwork, freezes, transitions, freestyle, strength, flexibility, battle skills, and performance experience.
Regular Breakdance groups train 2 times per week. A separate Weekend Breakdance Program is available for students who can attend once per week.
All students progress at their own pace, with skills adapted to age, experience, strength, coordination, and physical readiness.
