WHO WE BE? DMD!

WE ARE HAMILTON’S HIP-HOP & STREET DANCE FOCUSED DANCE STUDIO, AND COMMUNITY ARTS HUB. SINCE 2009, DMD IS WHERE STUDENTS OF ALL AGES HAVE THE OPPORTUNITY TO LEARN ABOUT THE FOUNDATIONS, THE CULTURE, AND IT'S HISTORY THROUGH IN-PERSON PROGRAMS WITH ENCOURAGING, PASSIONATE AND KNOWLEDGEABLE INSTRUCTORS. 

WITH PROGRAMS IN BREAKING, POPPING, LOCKING, HIP-HOP, ALL STYLES & FREESTYLE, PARENT & TOT HIP-HOP AND ADULT DROP-IN CLASSES, WE HAVE SOMETHING FOR ANY DANCER INTERESTED IN THE CULTURE.

An inclusive and diverse community striving to be a safe(R) space

Defining Movement Dance strives to be a safe space,
an inclusive place where anyone can dance, express and connect with themselves and others, without fear of being made to feel uncomfortable, unwelcome or unsafe on the basis of race, religion, ethnicity, biological sex, sexual orientation, gender identity or expression, cultural background, age, physical or mental ability, physical appearance or socioeconomic status.

  • YOUTH

    Our dance programs for youth introduce students to the foundations of each style, while encouraging an appreciation and respect of the culture, music and it's living history. Oh yeah, and they learn how to do really cool things on the dance floor!

    All classes listed will perform in our Year-End Studio Showcase in June

  • ADULT

    With a welcoming and encouraging atmosphere, we've got Beginner, Intermediate and Open drop-in classes and registered in Street Dance, Hip-Hop and Choreo, with more on the horizon!
