C3 specializes in creating extraordinary hip hop performance experiences for dancers who want to train, perform and be part of something meaningful.

Our teams combine purposeful training, intentional choreography, exceptional coaching and exciting opportunities that extend far beyond a weekly class.

WHAT MAKES C3 DIFFERENT?

PURPOSEFUL TRAINING

Our dancers develop hip hop foundations, musicality, performance quality and choreography retention through consistent, focused training.

Every team is built with intention around the dancers’ ages, abilities and readiness to grow.

​

EXTRAORDINARY OPPORTUNITIES

C3 dancers have performed at Saratoga Race Course, Saratoga Performing Arts Center, MVP Arena, Siena College basketball games and events throughout the region.

They compete regionally and nationally, create music videos, participate in flash mobs, perform at special events and train with accomplished choreographers from New York City, Los Angeles and beyond.

Not every dancer or team participates in every opportunity. We thoughtfully select experiences based on fit, readiness and what will best serve our dancers.

​

A PLACE TO BELONG

Shared goals create meaningful connections.

Our dancers train, travel, perform, celebrate and grow together within a supportive team environment. They are known by their coaches, challenged to contribute and encouraged to take pride in the group they help create.

​

COACHING THAT GOES BEYOND CHOREOGRAPHY

C3 coaches do more than teach routines.

They develop dancers, establish team culture and help each group grow throughout the season. Our coaching structure includes team assistants who provide additional support, continuity and leadership throughout the year.

THE HEART OF C3

Our youth performance teams are the core of C3.

​

Throughout the season, dancers train consistently, develop original routines and work together toward performances, competitions and special opportunities.

​

The result is more than technical growth. Dancers build confidence, accountability, meaningful friendships and pride in being part of something bigger than themselves.

​

C3 is designed for dancers who are excited to show up, ready to be coached and eager to contribute to a committed team.

IS A C3 TEAM THE RIGHT FIT?

C3 teams are designed for dancers and families ready to make a consistent, full-season commitment.

A C3 team may be the right fit for a dancer who:

  • Loves performing and wants more opportunities to take the stage

  • Is excited to attend practice consistently

  • Wants to be challenged and coached

  • Enjoys working toward shared goals

  • Is ready to contribute positively to a team

  • Wants an experience that extends beyond a traditional weekly class

Prior competitive experience is not required for every team. We place dancers based on where they can grow, contribute and succeed.
