K-pop dance classes vs Hip-hop: What are the differences? Find out which style suits you best and locate the top classes in Zografou & Neos Kosmos.
South Korean pop culture has taken over the world, and the debate surrounding K-pop dance classes vs Hip-hop is hotter than ever. Whether you are a self-proclaimed K-pop stan or a parent trying to understand what exactly your kid is dancing to in their room, let’s break down what sets these two massive styles apart and how to find them in dance schools in Athens.
What is K-pop dance and how does it differ from Hip-hop?
Hip-hop was born on the streets of New York and relies heavily on freestyle, "groove", and personal expression over urban beats. On the other hand, K-pop dance is a "hybrid" style. It borrows elements from hip-hop, commercial, and jazz, but the defining difference is absolute precision. In K-pop, you learn the official, highly-synchronized choreographies of your favorite idols (BTS, Blackpink, NewJeans).
Which style should you choose and where can you find us?
- Choose Hip-hop if you want to develop your own free rhythm and learn street culture (check out /hip-hop).
