Still going strong!!

Full Circle has been blessed with strong family ties with other NYC organizations such as Dance New Amsterdam -where the FC office has been housed since 2007- KR3T's- who helped with the incorporation process (1996)- and Abada Capoeira who performed at our first event in 1998 at AE Smith Park's and Recreation facility.

Abada Capoeira's director and founder Freddy Furacao Correa has just opened his company's homebase at Hybryd Fight and Dance Studios at 1828 (151st street) Amsterdam Avenue. He has extended the invitation for Full Circle to train and offer its signature Hip-hop dance technique alongside his Capoeira programming. Beginning Tuesday May 11th Rokafella will offer her open level classic Hip-hop styles class from 7pm to 8:30pm and on Sundays from 6pm-7:30pm. $15 per class.

Capoeira and Breakin share vocabulary that is passed down from generation to generation despite obstacles of displacement and economic deficits. The coming together of these two companies in NYC is a testimony of the sense of family that exists between two movement based genres that have struggled to be recognized as artforms worthy of society's respect and support. Together Abada Capoeira and Full Circle will forge a new alliance of young talent and traditional aesthetics that will make each other stronger and provide longevity for its practioners.

Kwikstep judged a bboy battle at Princeton University on Apil 24th and Rokafella screened the work in progress film All the Ladies Say at Wisconsin University's Break the LAw bboy event on April 30th and it was well attended.

Thank you to all who attended the NYC party on April 1st in our absence... we are still hearing great things about that evening of dance! Please spread the word about this party that is reminiscent of NYC's dance club days.
