Hip hop dancing is an urban ethnic dance form that has gained popularity in  recent days. It is more common than the break dance of modern days. Hip hop  dancing marked its beginning as part of the hip hop culture in the early 1900's,  when the youth in and around Bronx, New York started dancing on the streets.

Hip hop dancing is considered a good exercise perform. It helps to improve flexibility, to develop body  balance, and to coordinate the muscles.

Hip hop dancing includes many steps and movements that are not present in  ballet and ballroom dancing. The jazz, ballet, and other traditional dance forms  are technical and require more formal training. There is a term for each and  every movement in jazz and ballets. But this is not the case with hip hop  dancing and the dancers experience freedom while dancing.

Hip hop dancing can be learned by all those who are interested in dancing.  There is no age limitation or restriction for learners and dancers. It is also  not necessary that the instructor should be a professional dancer.
