Urban/ Hip Hop/ Street Dance has moved from an underground culture to widespread mainstream popularity. This culture attracts an audience that responds and interacts with music, dance, style and technology.
If your brand is looking to connect with trend setters, athletes, creatives and music fans aged 8-35 years, then a partnership with Dance Central could be worth considering and we would love to connect with you.
Our kids street dance crew ‘DKC’ (aged 8 to 12 years) have recently qualified to compete in the Hip Hop International (HHI) World Championships – known as the ‘Olympics of Hip Hop’ – in Phoenix Arizona during August this year. They are Australia’s runner up champions placing second in the highly competitive HHI National Competition held in Sydney during April this year. The National Competition saw over 1000 of Australia’s best dance crews go head to head — all vying for their chance to become one of the top three crews to represent Australia on the world stage.
HHI is an event that embodies a demographic of top consumers connected through all platforms of social media, propelled buy its high-impact, athletic and masterfully creative performers.
We have tailored programs and benefits for sponsors across a variety of budgets. Our pre-event fundraising campaigns (as shown above) could offer potential opportunities for your business to engage with a bright and motivated community.
If this is of interest, we would love to hear from you!
“HHI World Championships presents a unique opportunity for these kids to perform at an elite level, which nothing in everyday life can replicate. Competing on the world stage will teach them life skills beyond dance. Ultimately, they are learning that if you work hard for something, your dreams can come true – no matter your circumstances.” — Julie Scheer, Director of Dance Central
“Dance makes me feel happy in every inch of my body. Dance makes me feel like there are no boundaries and I can achieve anything. Dance lets me be who I want to be.” — Pippa Schroder, 11-year-old DKC member.
