What’s Up, I’m Q Harper
My life’s pretty cool. Not only do I get to make a career out of dancing and creating, but as a teacher, I get to inspire and help my students cultivate dreams of their own.
During the last 15 years as a professional, I've performed around the country, competed on a dance competition show (MTV’s Americas Best Dance Crew, Season 5), and collaborated with amazing dancers of many different styles.
I started my career as a b-boy and over the years have trained in many different styles of hip-hop like tutting, house, popping, and more. Now I get to share my knowledge and love of dance with students of different ages, levels, and technical backgrounds.
So come rock with me and learn some fundamentals of Hip-Hop.
What’s the Big 3?
Techniques
Hip-hop has a rich history and has been shaped by many different styles like grooving, b-boying, botting, tutting, and more. While I may cover elements of a wide range of techniques, I focus on what I call “The Big 3”, waving, popping, and tutting.
-
Enhances body control to create the illusions of fluidity and animated movements.
-
One of the oldest foundational styles that build powerful movements, mind-muscle connection, and body control.
-
A more modern style that refines hand-eye coordination with the use of lines and shapes.

Q's classes are unique because they are open for all levels and his teaching style makes everyone feel welcome! I learned so much from him when I used to take his hip-hop classes and I hope to be able to join his workshops again soon. He teaches important techniques and has such a calm/easy-to-follow way of teaching. Highly recommend joining!
