While the artistic expression of movement – a little thing we like to call ‘dance’ – has always been in the Korean music industry, it has become a focal point of the K-pop scene in recent years.
These days you can’t talk about a particular K-pop song without mentioning the accompanying dance. Is the dance catchy? Is it original? Does the dance fit the image of the singer? We’ve all seen videos upon videos of fans dancing to their favorite K-pop song of the moment, and maybe even some of you readers have uploaded your own covers. Fact of the matter is, we’re currently smack in the middle of an era where dance dominates the K-pop scene.
Well, in times where dance has become a central aspect in K-pop, it is most appropriate that MYX TVpresents the first ever K-pop dance convention!
—
Brought to you by MYX TV, K-pop’s top choreographers and all-around dancers have come together to bring you “KPOP Takeover“!
Movement Lifestyle choreographers - Shaun Evaristo, Lyle Beniga, Keone Madrid, and Mari Martin - who are respected choreographers for their work with YG Entertainment artists, will be at the convention breaking down dance moves from “the hottest Korean music videos.” In addition, Poreotics- winners of America’s Best Dance Crew season five – will also be there teaching workshops.
This convention will be held in the Los Angeles area from June 18th through the 19th and is open to all levels of dancers. And if you don’t feel like learning the dances to top K-pop songs (though I’m not sure why you wouldn’t want to), they also have special tickets for observers.
Tickets are on sale now so hurry up and reserve your space before they sell out!
