How should i train to become part of a hip hop team at a dance studio?

Question

i have no dance experience. i live in iowa and im 18

Answer 1

My friend took hip hop at a studio last year.

Don't worry about "getting prepared". The teachers don't expect you to know right off the bat hop to dance. They teach you alot of stuff, especially if it's your first year. Usually first year dancers don't compete until the upcoming year, but they may have you preform in the finale.

Mostly just make sure you can count beats in a song,

and feel the beat not just go through the song,

and most of all don't be afraid if you feel uncomforable.

My teachers most important rule is that if you feel silly and big, then your doing it right because hip hop is big and silly.

Have fun and alot of confidence!

Answer 2

be hip-hop n wear all hip-hop costumes,chains,bracelets,bangles,rings,...

n to do stage performance grow confidence,

always practice hip hop songs infront of the mirror.

work hard,n become a superstar.

Answer 3

Hip-hop is my personal favorite. Don't forget your technique though, if you are dancing at a competitive level. It still involves turns and jumps. First of all, make sure you have a lot of rhythm, and can bounce to the beat. Hip hop has variations. Sometimes you need to be really sharp and strong, sometimes it flows. You should have good musicality because not everything is 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 basics. You have to hear the bass and the beats. If it's a beginner class, and you have basic ballet and jazz training, you'll be fine. You'll know right away if it's your thing.

Answer 4

so you wanna join a dance studio in a hip hop team... nice..!!

to learn hiphop there are a few things you must have:

1. you must be able to enjoy the song and feel the beats. if you cant feel the beats u might as well just shake ur butt off..

2. a tutor ( or someone who knows how to hiphop properly) . without someone to teach you the moves, it gonna be one hard learning...

3. practice... practice ...and....practice....

if you have these in you,,, go HIPHOP..!!
