The Complete Hip Hop Curriculum Package


Beginner • Intermediate • Advanced

Bring authentic Hip Hop education to your studio with The Comix Method’s complete 3-level curriculum system. This is a structured progression through Hip Hop, with strong reinforcement from Breaking, Popping, and Locking.

Each level builds upon the last, guiding dancers from basic movement understanding to full creative expression with cultural integrity and technical precision.


Beginner Curriculum – “Foundation & Groove”

Start here. Dancers learn the cultural roots and physical language of street styles through accessible, high-energy lessons designed for classroom settings. Each unit emphasizes rhythm, body awareness, and connection to Hip Hop’s origins, helping new dancers move with confidence, not just choreography.


Intermediate Curriculum – “Technique & Connection”

The next step in development. Students deepen their understanding of musicality, transitions, and freestyle control while exploring the nuances of each style. Lessons challenge dancers to connect moves together and begin interpreting the music through their own voice, preparing them for cyphers, composition, and stage work.



Advanced Curriculum – “Expression & Mastery”

Where technique becomes artistry. Each month focuses on the layered development of a Hip Hop performer, alongside the optional advancement of styles such as Breaking, Popping, & Locking. This curriculum focuses on layering movement with timing, storytelling, and improvisational discipline. This level helps experienced dancers refine their individuality, unlock character, and perform with purpose, bridging classroom training to professional and cultural practice.

    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.

            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.
