Parent Testiomonials

  • "Break Free Hip Hop School...Now this is the way to get the youths of the nation...This place does it right! The staff is top notch instructors and they go out of their way to make you feel comfortable. They know what they're doing, folks. Amazing atmosphere! They have a Hip hop break dance school, a DJ school, an art class, and starting soon a multi media class for anyone wanting to learn how to produce, mix or be a YouTuber...like I said all the staff members are super nice and welcoming. I highly recommend Break Free Hip Hop School! You will not be disappointed!

  • "Break Free has become like a second family to us. Everyone has been so warm, welcoming and dedicated to this community of artists. They not only teach the students at a high level of training and work ethic (because they are very much at the top in the world of their craft) but they are also genuinely people of integrity. I am so grateful my son gets to have these guys as examples in his life. What a gift."

    Melody Walsh

  • "My son started coming to this school back in 2013. He was a shy little boy with very little confidence. Break Free Hip Hop School treated us like family. My son is no longer that shy little boy he once was. I recommend any family with a child who needs to feel like he belongs and have a sense of purpose to to bring their child here. It isn’t just a school for dancing, it is a place to be yourself and become a better person all around. 1"
