DANCEHALL DANCE COURSE

In this course, we practice steps, techniques and movements to rhythms from Jamaica and well-known hits such as Sean Paul’s “Get Busy”, Natasja’s “Calabria”, and Shaggy’s “Bombastic”.

We start by learning basic techniques in female dancehall and work our way up through the course with steps and choreography. The teaching will emphasise female dancehall with whine (hip rotations), pops and steps from Jamaican dancers.

You don’t need any experience with dancehall or dance in advance. Everyone can join.

Dancehall is considered a reggae subgenre and is named after Jamaican dance halls. The music contains songs from the late 1970s and hits released today, including Rihanna’s “Work” and Drake’s “One Dance.”
