Hip Hop Appreciation Day
Today recognises the birthday of hip hop, following a party thrown by DJ Kool Herc on August 11, 1973, at 1520 Sedgwick Avenue, an apartment building in the Bronx, which is historically accepted as the birthplace of hip hop. The music technique and the elements in that party became the foundation for hip hop culture. There are five elements, MC-ing, DJ-ing, break dancing, the art of graffiti, and beatboxing combine to construct this unique and popular art form.
Exploring the world of hip-hop, our Hip-Hop Infusion performance is an upbeat, energetic workshop sure to get students’ hearts pumping. Discovering urban culture and techniques in dancing, students learn about the influential and artistic expression of hip-hop dance. This program is available in Victoria, Australian Capital Territory, New South Wales, Queensland, and South Australia.
