Popping:  The structure for this Popping class is to build strength and stamina and master technique in different Popping styles. Students can expect to have a better understanding about this style of dance from history of it to understanding all the movements in and out of all these styles in the Popping. Students will become ready for any stage performance as well as battle-ready in any competition.

“Megatron” was born in Mississippi and raised in Boston, Massachusetts. He’s a self-taught artist and co-founder of one of New England’s original premier underground Bboy dance groups, “the Floorlords.” Combining the latest in Hip-Hop and R&B, he implements just the right amount of old school to add that extra “flava”. Megatron’s experiences have taken him all over the United States, where he has performed, showcased, judged, and competed against dancers and other underground crews. He has educated and trained hundreds of dancers in the moves and history of true Hip-Hop culture, all the while respecting each dancer’s unique physical abilities as they are incorporated into the fundamentals of true Hip-Hop dance styles. The dance community widely recognizes Megatron as an “OG” in this game and has had the pleasure to dance, perform, judge, and compete with other legends, like Poppin Pete, Boogaloo Sam, Mr. Wiggles, Buddha Stretch, and Brian Green, just to name a few. My dancing has also led me to branch out into the commercial side of the business, including Movies; (Celtic Pride), and Television (Arsenio Hall Show, Party Machine, & Chronicle,), as I have also graced the stage and performed with over forty (40) artists, from Hip Hop, Rap, R&B, and Rock to include (Heavy D & the Boys, Donna Summers, Kool & the Gang, Run DMC, Madonna and Areosmith), just to name of few.
