Step-by-Step Choreography That Builds Rhythm, Style & Confidence
Teaching pre-teens hip hop can be both rewarding and challenging. At this age, dancers need more than just choreography—they need structure, progressions, and confidence-building steps that connect them to the music. That’s exactly why the DTCE Synergy Center Combo: Pre-Teen Hip Hop was created.
With 4 structured breakdowns, 2+ syllabus guides, and 25+ minutes of expert-led instruction, this course helps dancers sharpen their rhythm, apply groove mechanics, and deliver choreography with clarity, control, and stage presence.
Why a Matching Hip Hop Syllabus Matters
Unlike traditional written notes, DTCE’s matching syllabus isn’t just a reference—it’s a roadmap. Each skill is linked directly to tutorial videos, giving teachers step-by-step clarity on when and how to introduce new movements.
✔ Prevents technique gaps and skipped progressions
✔ Saves time on lesson planning with ready-to-use structure
✔ Keeps dancers on track with logical, skill-based sequencing
With this approach, teachers can spend less time creating lessons and more time making corrections, refining technique, and building confident performers.
