Friday Hip-Hop Club Week 2: Top Rock & Conditioning

Known as a sixth sense, proprioception is the awareness one has of their own body. Do you ever feel your tummy grumbling, feel your skin twist? Today we’ll discover how to be even more in tune with feeling your own body’s sensations and how it will help you in breakdancing. 
Objective: Now that youth have an understanding of Top Rock, they should feel confident to participate in basic forms of breakdancing. We want to pursue further growth in helping them connect their mind to their body, understanding how to prepare themselves for entering more in-depth practices, and conditioning their bodies in preparation. 
Weekly Goal & Lesson: This week we want to engage youth in learning to understand their own bodies; paying attention to the body’s ability to sense location, movements, and actions. We’ll show the youth methods and techniques to become more aware of self; along with skills on how to listen to the body.
