10K Movement is a platform for highlighting the ecosystem of Hip Hop & Street Dance culture, its concrete, expansive disciplines through which we “move” and act as agents for our community. LoTL is microcosm for how Hip Hop (Dance) creates an environment where people of all backgrounds can congregate around the music and culture, which speaks for itself in facilitating an atmosphere of organic exchange.
