Hip Hop – Fall Session

Originating in the 70’s, Hip Hop is one of the most popular styles of dance today. Along with its moves and grooves, hip hop explores personal expression, style and important history that influenced the style to be what it is today! Join our Hip Hop class to learn about this history and some of the foundational movements of this style.

Dancers can attend this class in person or online.

ASL interpretation available upon request.

This class is for people 18 years old and older.

About Ashley Brodeur

Performing Arts Manager, Ashley Brodeur, became enthralled with the National access Arts Centre in the dance studio. After leading a movement session, her time with the artists at the NaAC ignited a passion that has inspired a career shift holding great potential of impact to the performing arts ecosystem.

Creator and Director of Maven Movement, providing professional level performance and training opportunities on an equitable scale has been her focus for the past 7 years. With professional performance credits that include Culture Shock Washington, D.C., the Dubai Shopping Festival, The Fringe Festival, TIFF, BravoFact!, collaborations with brands such as Loreal, Labatt and XBox, Toronto’s Choreographer’s Ball and the Much Music Video Awards with PSY, she believes it is essential to ensuring high caliber performance opportunities are available to all, especially those underrepresented in traditional professional atmospheres.

An attendee of the BFA Dance Program at York University, the Commercial Dance Program at George Brown College and the Professional Training Program at Decidedly Jazz Danceworks, she has actively trained in Los Angeles, Toronto and Saint Petersburg, Russia. Previously, she has taught coast to coast in Canada, the Dominican Republic and has shared her skills with hundreds of students throughout various school residency programs. A long-time faculty member at the School of Decidedly Jazz and iLLFX Education, she has also guest taught at numerous dance studios throughout Ontario and Alberta resulting in an extensive wealth of knowledge and adaptability to dance and the performing arts.

 

About Assistant James Silcock

James began dancing with MoMo in 2009. He has since began teaching and joined the performance ensemble performing in Imaginary People, the Mind Palace and the ensemble’s dance film, Moving Pictures/Pictures Moving. Not only does James bring a great deal of rhythm and funk to the ensemble and his classes, he is also exploring his choreographic and spoken word talents, bringing his characters to a new level. James can’t wait to be onstage once again in the near future!
