Join Monte Rezell of Chicago Dance Crash for a high energy, fun dance class that focuses on funk and street dance styles created by dancers of the hip hop culture. Learn techniques such as waves, isolations, poppin', grooves, breakin' elements, freestyling and more while gaining insight of the history of hip hop and origins of different street dances.
Boasting a signature "hip hop fusion" style, Crashís repertory includes choreography by some of the countryís top contemporary, jazz, and hip hop dancemakers while being commissioned to perform at events and stages including arenas, museums, rock clubs, award shows, subways, and floating atop Lake Michigan. Within the last several seasons, Crash has been featured on Italian, French, and American television as well as nationally recognized mediums including Dance Magazine and The Huffington Post. A two-time winner of the Black Theater Alliance Award for Choreography, Crash was selected by critics as ìThe Best Dance Company in Chicagoî by the Chicago Reader, hailed by Newcity Stage as one of the top two dance companies to emerge from Chicago within the past decade, and most recently was acknowledged for creating ìThe Most Inventive Work of 2017î in the U.S. by Dance Magazine.
