About Desi Hip Hop
Class Description:
Desi hip hop is a dance style that combines influences of hip hop & urban dance with the music and movements of Bollywood. The term Desi refers to the South Asian diaspora, and this style has gained traction in the Desi community worldwide. Exposure to western hip hop culture both through immigration and media has led to this style developing exponentially, and has also led to many other new sub styles such as Bollywhacking as the hiphop community grows in India.
