“House Dance International brings the dancers out of the club and onto the stage, in a celebration of more experimental dance forms including vogue, waacking, hustle, and house. (And yes, we had to look up waacking. According to HDI: "A fierce upright style that developed on the West Coast during the Soul Train years, waacking is an electrifying art form of complex arm and hand movements that project sensuality and strength.) Come bust a move in the ongoing battles, sign up for a workshop with scene legends, including Akim Funk Buddha, or take part in the choreography contest and showcase your own style.”
