Your son needs a healthy physical and emotional outlet in his life right now. He needs to be somewhere where his health and safety are top priorities. A place where he can make valuable friendships and feel like a part of a community. And a place where you can feel confident sending him because you know every precaution is being taken to keep him healthy. AIM's Boys Hip Hop class helps build confidence through dance taught with important historical and cultural context.

Class Options

  • Online Only: dance from the safety of your home and join the class via Zoom each week. We have a state-of-the-art setup in our studios so instructors can see their online students, and students at home can see and hear the instructor, her shoes, AND the music.
  • Hybrid Classes: With social distancing, we can fit a maximum of five students in the studio together, plus the instructor. We are accepting up to 10 Hybrid students in each class. The class will be split into two groups of dancers; one group will take class in person at the studio, and the other group will join from home via Zoom. Groups will rotate each week.
