This unit of work, lesson plans, set dance and literature is recommended for Year 8 Dance.
The unit focuses on the basic techniques of Hip Hop dance and brings in ideas taken from Parkour.
• Technical skills Introduction to an urban style of dance and further contact work. Transference of their technical skills to typical style with strict rhythm.
• Expressive skills Pupils will be encouraged to use a sound rhythmic structure to their performance, moving on and off the beat precisely. Pupils should also show a clarity and control when landing, moving over and around other dancers.
• Choreographic skills Pupils will use a variety of group sizes and relationships, with some opportunity solo, duet and trio work. The use of ‘tagging in’ will be explored for transition.
• Appreciation skills Pupils will view pictures and video and describe the key action, spatial, and dynamic relationship features. For example the action of the traceurs as they move around the city. Comment on the views and opinions expressed by leading professionals in parkour and Hip Hop dance.
