Parental Guidance
Music is a mix of hip-hop and funk, but has been screened for appropriate lyrics.
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 - a comfortable pair of shoes (sneakers preferred) - clothes they can move in (no over-sized clothing, no skirts) - enough space from computer camera to show student head to toe - water for break
External Resources
Learners will not need to use any apps or websites beyond the standard Outschool tools.
Teacher expertise and credentials
I traveled around the world (30+ 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.
