In our Adult Hip Hop Fusion class, we've been working on something called a Zulu Spin!

Zulu Spins come from breakdancing and involve rotating around on a straight leg while rolling from your heel, to your toe, back to your heel to create one continuous circle.

This video highlights a few different ways our dancers and teachers approach the movement, showing that there are often multiple ways to achieve the same goal!

Want to see more dance breakdowns and movement adaptations in the future? Drop a 🔥 in the comments below!

Video Description: This video takes place in Feel the Beat's Lakewood studio during an Adult Hip Hop Fusion class. The video highlights several students, along with teachers Amber Andrews and Jaime Bruce, demonstrating different variations of a Zulu Spin, including wheelchair adaptations. Background music, voiceover, and captions are included for accessibility. The video concludes with a light blue background featuring the 10 Year Feel the Beat logo, which cycles through several different icons.

What's the difference between Movers and Groovers? 🤔

At Feel the Beat, our classes are organized into two levels to help dancers find the environment that best supports their learning and growth.

✨ Movers focuses on exploration, creative movement, dance games, and building foundational movement skills.

✨ Groovers builds on those foundations with more choreography, technique, and opportunities to explore a wider variety of dance styles.

Both levels are fully adaptive and designed to support dancers with a wide range of abilities.

The difference isn't about who is "better", it's about finding the right fit for each dancer to learn, grow, and feel confident moving 💜

Have questions about which class might be the best fit? We'd be happy to help! Learn more at the link in our bio or at feelthebeat.dance 👈

Video Description: This video features clips from Feel the Beat classes and workshops, highlighting the differences between Movers and Groovers, Feel the Beat's two class levels. The Movers section includes activities with props, creative movement, and dance games, while the Groovers section features more choreography-focused movement and technique work. On-screen text is included throughout for clarity and accessibility. Audio includes voiceover, background music, and captions. The video ends with a yellow screen featuring the Feel the Beat logo and the motto, “One Beat for All.”

A little over a month ago, we had the absolute pleasure of collaborating with NeuroMotif, a neurodiversity-affirming music practice, for a live music and dance class 🎶

They started by singing beautiful follow-along songs while connected to our mobile vibrotactile floors, giving students the opportunity to connect with the music in a new way. Then NY Lead Teacher, MJ, took over and got us moving and grooving!

We had such an incredible time and cannot wait for future collaborations! If you’d be interested in more events like this in New York City, drop a 💜 in the comments!

Image Descriptions: This carousel includes 10 photos from a Feel the Beat and NeuroMotif collaboration class in Brooklyn, NY at Spoke the Hub Dancing. Some images show NeuroMotif members Brooke Slemmer, Sophie Kohn, and Taylor Andrews leading songs at standing microphones behind a mobile vibrotactile floor, with Brooke and Sophie also playing guitars. Other images show NY Lead Teacher Mary Jo Lasky leading students and NeuroMotif members through exercises, stretches, and choreography. Additional photos capture participants dancing together and sitting on the mobile floor.
