Hip Hop Classes in Chicago for Every Level

Our beginner hip hop dance class in Chicago is built for dancers ages 7 and up with little or no prior experience. Students learn foundational grooves, isolations, and rhythm alongside simple across-the-floor combinations, building coordination, musicality, and confidence in a welcoming, high-energy environment.

Basic 2 Hip Hop is the next step for dancers who have completed Basic 1 or have some prior experience. Students strengthen their grooves and isolations, take on longer combinations, and build the rhythm, coordination, and confidence to move toward intermediate-level choreography.

Building on a solid foundation, Intermediate 1 Hip Hop introduces longer combinations, sharper isolations, and a first look at style and texture. Dancers develop cleaner execution, stronger musicality, and the stamina to perform extended choreography with growing confidence and performance presence.

Intermediate 2 Hip Hop expands the movement vocabulary with more complex choreography, faster combinations, and layered musicality. Students refine their timing, dynamics, and personal style while building the conditioning required to progress toward advanced training. Instructor placement required.

For experienced dancers, Advanced Hip Hop demands precision, stamina, and stage presence. Intricate choreography, layered musicality, and an introduction to freestyle challenge dancers at a high level while sharpening the artistry that carries into performance. Instructor placement required.

The next step beyond Advanced 1, Advanced 2 Hip Hop pushes dancers further into complex, layered choreography and advanced freestyle work. Students refine speed, sharpness, and stage presence while taking on faster combinations and more demanding musicality. This class prepares dancers for the artistry and technical command expected at the Perfection level.

The entry point into LBP's Perfection program. Dancers train at a significantly elevated level with demanding repertoire, refined style, and the performance quality that defines perfection-level hip hop.

Building on Perfection 1, dancers tackle more complex choreography and sharper dynamics, bringing genuine artistry and individual style to every combination. Technique is precise and performance quality is high.

LBP's highest hip hop level and the culmination of years of dedicated training. Technical mastery, musicality, and a fully developed personal style come together with real stage command and expressive depth.
