We threw something new at the crew last week with a popping workshop, led by Aaron Harper! Stepping outside their usual training and diving into a different street style challenged these dancers in the best way possible. We love seeing the crew continue to expand their movement vocabulary and versatility! 🤝🏽

Fun fact: Aaron creates his own tracks, including the one on this reel! Check him out on whichever streaming platform you use 😊

There are so much more to thank for being a part of this event. The support from the community,the live instrumentation, the DJing. The jokes and togetherness makes this worthwhile.
