We specialize in building a strong foundation in technique, rhythm, and creativity—while fostering a deep love of the performing arts.

Explore Our Hip Hop Dance Program in San Gabriel

PopRock Academy is known for its high-energy and dynamic hip hop dance program in San Gabriel. We welcome dancers as young as 3 years old and guide them through progressive levels of hip hop technique, musicality, and performance skills. Our curriculum is rooted in authentic street styles while incorporating commercial choreography, freestyle, and urban movement.

Our hip hop dance classes in San Gabriel aren’t just about learning routines—they’re about cultivating a sense of rhythm, creativity, confidence, and expression. Students work on body control, groove, footwork, and performance presence in each class. Whether it’s your child’s first dance class or they’re preparing for competition, our program offers the structure and excitement needed to thrive.

What makes our hip hop dance program in San Gabriel unique is how we weave it into other parts of our academy experience. Hip hop is featured in our Glee Workshop—a triple-threat program combining singing, dancing, and acting—and in our elite performance crew, the PopRockers. These performance opportunities give students real stage experience while growing their technique in a fun, collaborative environment.

Built for All Ages and Levels

One of the hallmarks of our San Gabriel dance school is that we welcome dancers of all backgrounds. You don’t need prior dance experience to get started. We offer beginner, intermediate, and advanced classes, so students can progress at their own pace.

Younger students enjoy playful but skill-based instruction designed to introduce them to the basics of movement, coordination, and rhythm. As students grow, so does the depth of their training. Older and more experienced dancers are challenged with advanced choreography and technique to prepare them for auditions, team placements, and even professional opportunities.

In our hip hop dance classes in San Gabriel, we ensure every dancer gets a chance to shine—whether in class, at recitals, or in live performances.

Emphasis on Performance and Lifelong Learning

PopRock Academy is not just about training dancers—we’re about cultivating lifelong dancers. Our programs are focused on performance, discipline, and fun, blending structure with creativity to keep students engaged and growing.

We believe every dancer should love what they do and feel proud of how they do it. That’s why we incorporate multiple performance opportunities each year, from in-house showcases to community events. These moments allow our students to take what they’ve learned and share it with family, friends, and their wider community.

Our students don’t just graduate with stronger dance technique—they leave with confidence, stage presence, and the ability to express themselves through movement long after they leave our doors.

Hip Hop and Beyond: Creating Versatile Dancers

While our hip hop dance program in San Gabriel is a standout, we also encourage students to become well-rounded dancers. We offer a jazz program designed to complement hip hop training and introduce students to other foundational dance techniques. Jazz dance teaches coordination, extension, and expressive movement—all of which elevate a dancer’s skillset.

We invite students to explore both hip hop and jazz, as this combination develops versatility and opens the door to broader opportunities in dance, theater, and musical performance.

PopRock Academy's approach is rooted in helping dancers explore multiple styles so they can discover what speaks to them most. Whether a student dreams of joining a K-pop dance crew or auditioning for a musical, we give them the tools and training to make it happen.
