The Tutors   the tutors  

 

Our dance tutors have years of experience teaching their own routines plus dance routines from hit films such as You Got Served and Step Up. Our top tutors have appeared in music videos and competed in Hip Hop dance competitions all over the UK and now want to teach you some of these amazing dance moves, fresh from the streets.

 

 

 

The Workshop   the workshop  

 

The one-day Workshop is a great option if your looking for a fun filled day with the aim to learn a new dance routine and get advice on how to warm up properly from a professional tutor.

 

warm up and activity session


To start off the workshop the tutors will run through a thorough warm up and stretching session with basic stretches plus stretches that are particularly relevant for this workshop. After everyone's warmed up the tutors will go through different activities focussing on rhythm, co-ordination and counts and tips to help the participants if they ever want to create their own dance routines.

 

the routine


The main highlight of the workshop is the routine. Depending on the participants, the tutor will choose one of many routines they have to offer starting from the basics right through to professional standards and will teach the pupils the routine/dance piece using counts and a slow step by step teaching method to allow the pupils to progress at their own speed and eventually perfect the routine down to the last detail.

 

the dance battle / performance


To finish the workshop off the tutor will split the group into two groups for a 'dance off' or will form several groups within the class and then arrange the groups into a formation for them to perform what they have learnt within the workshop to the rest of the class.

 

the workshops summary


Overall this workshop really encourages teamwork and builds numerical skills, rhythm,
co-ordination and self confidence whilst learning moves that would impress anyone and everyone.

 

 

 

 

Courses   courses  

 

If your looking to go further than the one-day workshop then the course is suitable for you. The course is ideal for beginners who have no real experience in street dance yet and want to go further then the basics by learning a variety of dance routines from simple routines to more complex and technical routines.

Throughout the course the participants will be learning different dance routines and will also be encouraged to bring out their own creative side by choreographing some dance routines by themselves with the help of our professional tutor. From beginning to end the routines will slowly become more and more advanced and so will the participants dance style as the tutor starts to focus on what makes a good street dancer, such as posture, co-ordination, style, locking and much more in depth details within this dynamic dance form.

This course is guaranteed to build confidance and improve all participants in the way they dance and how they create their own dance routines, leaving them with a whole range of dance routines to perfect with their friends and show off to their families.

 

 

 

Dance Choreography   choreography  

 

The show option brings nothing but an amazing chance to work with one of our professional choreographers to put together a show full of dynamic group routines, group battles and much more in a performance that can involve individuals who are total beginners as well as those who have plenty of experience in street dance. The show is choreographed over the course of 8-12 weeks. In the first 4-6 weeks the tutor will teach the participants a full range of dance routines, which participants will need to master before our tutor incorporates them into the show/piece that will be performed to a whole range of the top hip hop tracks, professionally mixed and arranged by our music production team. In the past, groups that have experienced creating a show with Urban Edge have gone on to perform around their county at youth events and in competitions.

Overall this option brings a real sense of achievement and is an great opportunity that any beginner or experienced dancer will enjoy and learn alot from. If you have a set group of people and would like to have a professional dance performance to perform this is something that cant be missed.

 

 

 

Testimonials   testimonials  

 

"Urban Edge have produced high quality work with young people at 'The Edge' youth project. It was great to see the dance routine develop over the weeks and to then see the group perform it to an audience for the first time. Our young people can't wait for the next sessions and have already been showing their moves in the youth centre and at school"

Chris Walsh
(The Edge Youth Centre)
