Debut Dance District teaches K-Pop and Hip-Hop/Jazz Funk classes, but may have different styles of dance based on the different workshops/classes that are available. Please refer to the schedule for any upcoming workshops and special classes.

Question 3

I am new at dancing. Are classes only for advanced and professional dancers?

Accepted Answer

Beginners are more than welcome, no prior experience is required! Both beginners and professionals are welcomed. Beginners are able to take any class available at our studio. However, we usually recommend our Beginner K-Pop classes for beginners who wish to learn the choreography at a slower pace and with more focus on details.

Question 4

How are beginner Kpop classes taught?

Accepted Answer

Beginner classes are geared more towards those with less dance experience. Classes are taught at a slower pace with more focus on getting students familiar with the moves and techniques so you can get the most out of the class. Even amateurs are able to join without discomfort.
(Class arrangements: warm up with stretching, training to prepare the more difficult moves of the choreography, the main choreography)
 
Attendees MUST pre-register and receive a reservation confirmation in order to attend class.

We do not teach a whole K-pop choreography in one class. Rather, we teach it in parts over the course of a 4 week period
 
Beginner K-Pop classes, are taught over a 4 week period, twice a week (total of 8 classes).
Week 1 (Monday & Wednesday): Introduction of choreography 
Week 2 (Monday & Wednesday): Verse 1

Hip-hop/Jazzfunk class teaches a new choreography every class, unless stated otherwise.

Regular classes on Tuesdays, 7-8pm, 8-9pm, and 9-10pm and Thursdays, 7-8pm, 8-9pm, and 9-10pm are divided into 4 parts within the 4 week period. If you wish to master the full choreography, enroll in all 4 classes. If you wish, you may only participate on a desired date. The full choreography is divided as the following:
 • Week 1: Introduction of choreography
 • Week 2: Verse 1
 • Week 3: Verse 2
 • Week 4: Ending of choreography
Saturday Pop Up KPOP class: songs are decided beginning of the week, every week. You are able to learn a new choreography every week. Usually, choreography is up to the first verse, but it may change depending on the difficulty of the choreography.
 
Saturday Basic Hiphop Class: The basics of hiphop such as isolation, body wave, arm wave, steps, rhythm training, and short combination can be learned. The curriculum consists of repetitive moves to build foundation of hiphop with additional new combination of many different steps and moves every week.
