The deep dive

The Deep Dive previously existed as an ongoing, membership- based program rotating through different street style focuses, led by Vince Johnson. It's going to be changing slightly! The program will no longer be membership based, but rather series based. Style focus will rotate each round of the series, and each round will have a different featured instructor! This program welcomes all levels- advanced beginner friendly! This is a great program to do after The UMA Dip!

Street dance is truly an art form with tremendous depth. Since the emergence of modern American street dances like breaking and hip hop, dancers have felt connected to martial artists. Within all of the dance forms there are many techniques and the ability to go deep in search of your style and expression. 

Current Series:  
​Locking Special Edition: Grooves, Rolls and Bounces

In this Locking Deep Dive, Dru aka "Riot" will support students with journeying beyond the technique and foundations. The class supports students with refining their personal dance style, emphasizing various approaches to rocking, swinging, rolling, and bouncing. The class focuses heavily on connection with the music and grooves. Dru's goal is to support dancers with locating more of the heart and soul of Locking and funk styles, going deeper than the technique, vocabulary and foundational movement.
