Hip-Hop

The  hip hop dance mainly refers to dance styles including popping, locking, breaking, electro and house dance .The dance industry responded with a commercial, studio-based version of hip-hop sometimes called new style and a hip-hop influenced style of jazz dance called jazz-funk. Classically trained dancers developed these studio styles in order to create choreography from the hip-hop dances that were performed on the street. Because of this development, hip-hop dance is practiced in both dance studios and outdoor spaces.

This type of dance came from the streets largely in the Hispanic and African American communities.The moves involved a lot of jumping, almost acrobat like movements. Entertainment, such as the previously mentioned titles, and the Internet have contributed to introducing hip-hop dance outside of the United States. Since being exposed, educational opportunities and dance competitions have helped to maintain its presence abroad. As the  popularity continues to grow many hip hop dancers are taking this opportunity to open their own dance school. They are creating new opportunities for future dancers and hip hop dance is quickly becoming one of the most popular dance styles in the world.
