Hip hop dance is one of my personal faves when it comes to dance types. I grew up with 90’s hip hop (which is the best, btw) so it definitely has a warm place in my heart.

Hip Hop Dance For All
Dancing hip hop is for everybody. It does not discriminate against age, body type or race, it welcomes each and everyone to try out it’s awesomeness. I fell in love with hip hop dance when I heard Snoop Dogg’s Lodi Dodi. It was so dope and that hook was so catchy. I was floored because the beat was so smooth, the flow was incredible and Nanci Fletcher’s voice was mesmerizing. Obviously, I had that song stuck in my head for days and I still know all the words and can dance to it in my sleep. Hip hop dance and music isn’t just one kind of beat or move either, there are so many layers to it and that’s what I love most. You can be gangster, you can be fierce and flirty and you can add your own flavor to all those hip hop dance moves.La Di Da Di, we likes to party. We don’t cause trouble, we don’t bother nobody

1. Tootsee Roll
Let me see that Tootsee Roll! This is a great move to start with because you can loosen up those hips, legs and arms with one single move. You’re essentially making a figure eight motion with your limbs. I’d start with one arm and then both arms together. Then bring your knees in together and bring them out. Repeat. You’ve got that Tootsee Roll down babe!
2. Knock On The Door
Hello, neighbor. Don’t mind me, just dancing. Make a knocking motion with one arm. Then turn your fist towards you and sway the opposite hip towards that door. Oh heeeey, femme hip hop dance in the house! This move is so fun and you can do variations like one knock or even three. Show me what you’ve got✊?
3. Two Step
A step touch never hurt anyone, it just made them cooler. The main move here is the step touch— step right foot to the right and touch your right heel with your left heel. This is the foundation of any hip hop dance because you can slow it down, make it faster and do anything with your arms that makes you feel good!
4. Shoulder Rolls
Roll your shoulders and groove to the music babe. Add a little knee lift each time you roll your shoulders forward and really channel your inner Janet Jackson. This is another move that you can add variety too with either rolling your shoulder just once or twice and adding levels to how hard your roll your shoulders to how low you can go while doing shoulder rolls.
5. The Cabbage Patch
Yes you read that right, we’re bringing the Cabbage Patch back and making it a little sexier. Did you know you can actually activate your core while doing this move? Squeeze that belly tight and circle those hips with those arms babe and feel the burn ? You can’t go wrong with another classes hip hop gem.
