How This Fits Into a John Comix Hip Hop Program

This curriculum utilizes lessons that are made specifically for a dancer with a base understanding of Hip Hop & street dance, as it aims for ideas that will help dancers develop a full understanding of movement. Emotion, complex rhythms, and more ideas are first implemented in this level.

The Comix Method training and certification has given me the confidence and skills to teach a meaningful Hip Hop class that I originally wasn’t sure about teaching. My students are loving learning the history and “why” behind each step and I’m loving imparting the knowledge I’ve learned.

The Comix Method: Certified Teacher

        We were able to host John recently in our studio for two student workshops divided by ages, an adult class and a teacher training. I had followed him on social media and had always been impressed by his level of knowledge and passion to teach REAL hip hop. We were blown away by his knowledge once we met him in person and his training-in addition to his curriculum-has shaped our hip hop program in our studio! I highly recommend using John as a resource however you can, whether it is his curriculum or a live session. He is truly one of the best out there!

        I had John out to my studio over the summer for teacher training. I am so glad that I had more than just my hip hop teachers in the room as his tips, exercises and approaches can be used in all genres. They are true teaching tools. John gives a true foundation and education on hip hop culture and brings you back to where it comes from and the why. His personality is infectious and his passion for not only his art  but educating others is evident. He has made himself available  to be a mentor to one of my newer staff members and we have purchased his curriculum for our studio. I can't say enough about him except he is the real deal.

     John Comix Barrella has visited our studio three times since 2018 and he has inspired, educated and infused excitement into our hip hop programs.  Not only does he deliver memorable and current class work, he is authentic.  He studies so he can share and inspire with so much knowledge.  Our hip hop instructor uses his teaching material to continue to develop a strong and growing program at our studio.  After year one, our dancers looked forward to learning new styles that were presented with so much detail that they could retain the information and build on John's workshop visit throughout the season.
