Battle Crew

In the battle crew lessons you train together with your crew, or your team. The team called Battlefactory will participate in various competitions and battles. A battle is literally a battle against another dancer or team. There is danced 1 round or several rounds and in the end there is a winner.

The different categories within these competitions can be: 1 VS 1 (that is when 1 dancer has to dance against another dancer), 2 VS 2 (duo’s), 3 VS 3 and higher numbers (crew battles). In a battle, dancers face each other. The competition revolves around determining who is the best. In the past, battles were used to resolve conflicts because there was no belief in violence. Now it is a form of competition in which dancers are competitive within the battle and treat each other respectfully outside the battle.

Training for Battle competitions

In the Battlefactory training sessions, you train in the different Hip Hop dance styles. As described on the Hip Hop Streetdance page, this lesson uses the following styles: Popping, Locking, New Jack Swing, basics B-boying, and Original Streetdance (this dance style is now known as Hip Hop). The dancers of this team will mainly express themselves in the freestyle form. A routine can be applied here and there in one of the styles above.

In addition, the dancers of this team will learn how to warm up properly, but also how to train their bodies in the right way to be able to express the dance in the most correct and safe way possible.

The team Battlefactory

The Battlefactory team is a team that is well attuned to each other and thus knows how to challenge the opponent in a worthy way. These dancers thoroughly enjoy dancing together and sharing knowledge and techniques on the competition floor. Mentally, these dancers are trained not to be easily fooled by the pressure during dancing and/or by the opponents. Within the Battlefactory training sessions, the dancers learn that respect is paramount and that after the battle all dancers are one and can connect with each other. This class is for intermediate/advanced dancers. You can participate in this on the advice of one of our dance teachers or through auditions.
