Break Dance Camp 3: Cyphers
What's included
8 live meetings
7 hrs 20 mins in-class hoursHomework
1-2 hours per week. All "homework" is referred to as "training" to reinforce the goal of building skills rather than the negative connotation that the word "work" has. Daily training is to upgrade their arsenals and practice new moves with the song of the day.Assessment
Learner progress is assessed by how well they dance in our digital cypher by the end of camp. With the positivity and confidence we'll build throughout camp, students will have a good time by the end :-)Class Experience
Daily students will learn new rules about the etiquette of cyphers (dance circles) and practice through games and training. As the camp progresses, students will build their arsenals and their confidence so that they can join any cypher they want! CAMP BONUSES: - Recap Videos: Students can review the moves and choreography with additional recap videos. - Access to family friendly canon of Breakdance music for practicing - Certificate of Completion with NEW TITLES (Freeze Master, Cypher King/Queen, Cypher Ready) Weekly Breakdown Week 1 (Cypher Rules + Set Practice) Week 2 (Cypher Rules + Space Practice) Week 3 (Cypher Rules + Freestyle Practice) Week 4 (Cypher Games + Final Cypher) Week 5 (Certified Tough Check in + Cypher Games)

Parental Guidance
My "Outschool Breakdance" Spotify playlist is an external resource available for all students. You'll need to create a basic account to access it for free (on shuffle mode) or a paid account to select specific songs from the list. Music is a mix of hip-hop and funk, but has been screened for appropriate lyrics.
Wrist warm-ups/exercises will be required for learning/practicing the bottomrock moves. It is also advisable that students should wear comfortable shoes (sneakers) and clothes for dancing (not oversized). As well, students should have a clear open space for dancing and a distance from the computer that allows me to see them from head to toe in order to ensure they're doing the moves properly. A water bottle is also required for brief breaks.
Supply List
Students will need - Knee Pads - yoga mat - a comfortable pair of indoor shoes (to protect their feet) - clothes they can move in (no over-sized clothing, no skirts, no dresses) - clear space to dance (non-carpet preferred, but not necessary) - distance from camera to so I can see their heads and feet are correctly doing the moves - Beanie style hat - folder to hold worksheets
1 file available upon enrollment

Teacher expertise and credentials
I traveled around the world (40+ countries) while teaching and learning from the local dancers. Also, I was mentored by a world renown breakdancer while living in Korea for three years. This mentorship mixed with my experience and personal training has made me particularly knowledgeable and skilled in the topic.
