Discussion Panel with NYC Rock Dance Pioneers.

The origins of East Coast urban dance culture has been debated and disputed for decades.
Whether we are talking about Breaking, B-Boying, Up Rock, Top Rock, Lofting, or Hip Hop Freestyle, they all originate from New York City.
These dance styles lead to the Breakdance era of the 80′s and Hip Hop Dance of the 90′s.
The Rock Dance Summit is going to break down the origins of all these styles and how they pertain to the mother style of them all…

THE ROCK DANCE!

THE ROCK DANCE SUMMIT will premiere Original New York City Rock Dancers through each phase and era.
