Practiced in the bustling streets of Lagos, Nigeria, Afro-Hip-Hop dance is a dynamic fusion of traditional Afro moves and the infectious beats of hip-hop. In the heart of Nigeria's rising hip-hop scene, this style captures the raw energy and creativity of the city.
Choreography takes center stage, weaving tales of resilience and celebration through dynamic footwork inspired by traditional Nigerian dances. Influenced by B-boy culture, Afro-Hip-Hop adds a fearless edge, blending breakdance elements and stunting for a captivating street spectacle.
From its birthplace in Lagos to global stages, Afro-Hip-Hop embodies the city's spirit—a vibrant expression of tradition and modernity, where creativity knows no bounds, echoing the beats of a community in perpetual motion.
