Funk Theory! - Popping Workshop feat. Groovy G's & Koji



Download Registration Form here

Yes, you read it right. The first funk-only workshop series in Vancouver is here!!

What is it?
A workshop series with the goal of teaching you how to DANCE for yourself. Discovering how your own body moves naturally (to the funk!) is one of our key goals in these workshops. We will not only show you funk movement through drills & exercises but EXPLAIN to you where these movements came from, and ways to apply them to your own dance. By the end of this workshop, you will leave with a greater understanding of the funk culture and how the dance is done!

From time to time we will be inviting special guest teachers. We have already confirmed 2 guests for 2009: Jr. Boogaloo & Popula. Check back occasionally for updates!

Funk Theory: Groovy G's edition will focus on all the basics of popping as well as other styles surrounding it.

6 Classes, covering:
