Step Into Breaking: A Hip Hop Dance Taster with Marso
Dive into the vibrant world of Hip Hop with this high-energy Breaking-focused taster class, designed for beginners and open-level movers alike. Breaking — one of the four foundational elements of Hip Hop culture — is at the heart of this session, offering you the chance to explore rhythm, flow, and expression through dynamic movement.
The session is led by Marso, award-winning choreographer, educator, and movement director. Known internationally for his unique fusion of Breaking, contemporary dance, and floorwork, Marso has worked with leading companies and platforms including Rambert, The Place, BBC, and Red Bull, sharing his distinctive movement language across the globe.
Expect an upbeat warm-up, accessible step-by-step sequences, and creative play — all in a relaxed, supportive environment. You’ll be introduced to Breaking foundations such as top rocks, footwork, drops, and freezes, with space to build confidence, coordination, and your own personal style.
Throughout the year, expect guest teachers from Marso’s circle of collaborators to bring their own unique movement approaches and insights, enriching your experience and deepening your connection to Hip Hop dance and culture.
Whether you’re looking to try something new, connect with Hip Hop roots, or simply enjoy moving to music, this class is the perfect place to begin.
Come move, groove, and express — one beat at a time.
