We don't just teach moves, we build the culture. Whether you are finding your groove for the first time or sharpening your style, our group sessions are where the community grows.

Wondering how to start street dance? It begins with the right mindset and solid fundamentals. This clip from one of my beginner classes shows the step-by-step process we follow to get you moving with confidence, no matter your starting point.

A short freestyle flow during one of my HipHop classes. You can see the energy and focus as we all lock in on the same groove. This is how we build together as a crew.

Here's how we build crew battle routines, starting with simple steps. In this session with my Street Dance Diploma Program students, we're working on timing, connection, and creating impactful combos as a unit.

A fresh freestyle choreography with my students. We work on being sharp, clean, and in sync while still leaving room for individual style. This is a great example of a typical hip-hop class routine.

A throwback to a freestyle routine class. Even when we're learning choreography, the goal is to feel the freedom within the structure. It's about training, not just copying.

A fun freestyle routine with my students. The energy in the room is everything. We learn, we vibe, we push each other. This is what our beginner dance classes in Bangalore are all about.

Go with it. A quick routine with my Street Dance Diploma Program (SDDP) students. We focus on hitting the beats hard and keeping the energy high from start to finish.

Working on step-out variations and speed changes with my foundation batch. Mastering these basic hip-hop tutorials is key to building a strong dance vocabulary.

A quick routine I cooked up for the class. Even in a group setting, I encourage everyone to add their own flavor. It's about learning the steps, then making them your own.

Vibe check with the beginners' batch. I made this fun routine to get their weekend started right. You don't need to be a great dancer to start, you just need a heart that loves to dance.

About In The Classroom: Group Sessions

Don't stress about being a pro before you walk in. Our sessions are built around core foundations—we break down grooves, rhythm, and technique so you actually understand the music, not just mimic steps. We keep our batch sizes tight (15 to 25 students) so you get enough personal attention to fix your form while still vibing with the rest of the crew.

Our approach in the classroom is about more than choreography. We focus on 'foundational groove', drilling the basics of OldSchool HipHop, House, and Popping until the rhythm becomes second nature. Whether you hit our main studio in Koramangala or join us in HSR or Indiranagar, the energy remains raw and focused.

We structure these sessions for progression. You'll spend 20 minutes of every class on groove drills because that is where the real work happens. We use high-bass sound systems because you need to feel the music, not just hear it. You will learn to handle your own body, from TopRock to C-Walk, and develop the musicality to freestyle with confidence.

If you are ready to go deep, our 3-month Street Dance Diploma covers 14+ styles. It is designed for those who want to understand the history, battle etiquette, and professional side of the art. But for our regular batches, the goal is simple: show up, put in the work, and find your own flow. We don't do 'polished and fake' here. We do real work. If you have the heart for it, you belong here.

I've been grinding since 2005, building a scene where 'fam' actually means something. I created these classes because I wanted a space where people could learn real foundations, mess up, and grow together without the pretension.
