Support 10K Movement: Invest in the Future of Hip Hop & Street Dance

Hip Hop and Street Dance are more than just movement—they are American folk traditions, deeply rooted in the stories, struggles, and triumphs of Black and Latin communities. These art forms have served as a voice for the unheard, a refuge for the unseen, and a stage for the unapologetically authentic.

At 10K Movement, we are dedicated to preserving, elevating, and expanding this cultural legacy. Our mission is to ensure that Hip Hop and Street Dance remain respected, understood, and accessible to all—especially in communities that often lack proper resources and representation.

We provide education, professional development, and cultural programming that empower dancers to master their craft, embrace their history, and create new opportunities for themselves and the generations that follow.

But we can’t do this alone.

I just wanted to express my extreme gratitude to 10K Movement again, to be a part of SSDI & LoTL. I had so much fun with this group, and cannot wait to see where everyone will prosper. Thank you to my instructors for another year in teaching me, to what I continue to learn through dance, but also for playing a vital role in my life. Much love for them, the community, and all around.”

Well done! It was dope to see the east, midwest, southeast, and west coast come together, as well as international family. The event was well run and on time! Can’t wait to come back next year! Thanks for the hospitality! Keep Rocking!

The one major thing 10K always keeps in the forefront of my mind is that in order to be a good teacher, you must be a great student. Being able to show relatability and understanding always improves both the teaching and learning experience. This is the furthest leap I have taken in teaching, along with my ability to create a healthy learning environment and space where students can be openly expressive about their experience.
