MORE INFORMATION

WHAT IS BOOGIEZONE?
FRESH. NEW. PASSIONATE. READY.

A new era is emerging. A social movement garnered by dancers of all styles and backgrounds and a growing interest in all things related to dance by fans of every age around the globe. Thanks to the media, television shows like “So You Think You Can Dance” and “Dancing with the Stars,” dance inspired commercials, and movies like “Step Up,” dance is reaching a broader audience. Similarly, the internet has allowed us all to reach areas of the world where dance does not readily exist.

On the forefront of this new movement is Boogiezone.com – YOUR online dance community connection! First established in 2002, Boogiezone is known by thousands worldwide for offering a place where aspiring and professional dancers, choreographers, dance groups, and the fans that love them come to meet, greet, inspire, be inspired, network and build relationships in the process. Four years ago the concept of “Community” in the dance scene was unheard of. Now, Boogiezone is responsible for bringing groves of dancers together, known by many worldwide as the most active online dance community to join. The idea of Boogiezone and the massive grass roots movement which emerged from it has definitely influenced the way the entertainment industry runs and behaves.

Simply imagine a communication hub that bridges the gap between aspiring and professional dancers around the world. That is Boogiezone. The dance community hotspot where anyone who wants to share with others their passion for dance and performance can meet, greet, inspire, be inspired, make connections and build relationships in the process. Together, we represent a fresh, new, community comprised of passionate people, ready to take dance to the next level.

Currently, Boogiezone has over sixteen thousand registered members online, with thousands upon thousands visiting our pages every month. We can’t forget to include the thousands of subscribers who watch our extensive collection of nearly 1,500 class videos on Youtube and the hundreds of hungry students that fill our ten regularly scheduled Community Classes worldwide! As a result our community continues to grow at a remarkable rate. The attention we have received has enabled us to sponsor the largest dance competitions like “Hip Hop Interna¬tional,” shows like ‘Groovaloo’, work with the largest dance conven¬tions like “Monsters of Hip Hop” and partner with movie powerhouses like Lionsgate Films and Sony Pictures. We are also supported by the industry’s top talent agencies like MSA and Bloc, major dance studios like Millennium Dance Complex, dance groups like Quest Crew and countless choreographers to the stars like Janet Jackson, Britney Spears, and Mariah Carey.

ABOUT THE COMMUNITY CLASS

As a physical extension of Boogiezone.com – YOUR online dance community connection, The Boogiezone Community Class adopts and promotes an atmosphere focused on positivity and inspiration. Its unique class vibe goes unmatched, known worldwide as one of the most comfortable, non-competitive environments to train in. Taught by Boogiezone Community members from around the world and the industry’s most sought after choreographers, the Boogiezone Community Class provides the physical platform for everyone to interact and engage on a multitude of levels.

In conjunction with establishing its reputation as an emerging online dance community website, Boogiezone also developed a strong reputation for organizing some of the best workshops and master classes. In an effort to offer quality dance instruction to the masses on a more frequent basis, the first weekly Community Class was established at Focus Dance Center in Irvine , California on June 20, 2004. After three years, over a two hundred teachers, and over a thousand students later, The Community Class Network was born. In November 2007, The Community Class concept was integrated into two more Southern California studios, Jayvee Dance Center in Alhambra , and Hype Studios in Torrance, in 2008 establish Boogiezone Contemporary in Irvine and in 2009 Studio FX in San Diego . As a result of duplicating the class and offering it in more locations, Boogiezone is broadening its sphere of influence, further fulfilling its mission to reach as many dancers and work with as many studios around the world as possible. As of September 2008, we offer classes regularly in Tokyo, Japan, Melbourne Australia, New Zealand and New Jersey , and have taken the class concept as a workshop to New York - NY, Vancouver, B.C., Vancouver WA , Bellevue - WA, Winnepeg - Manitoba , Miami , Orlando, and Gainesville - Florida .

THE MISSION STATEMENT

“To further bridge the gap between the Dance Community and Industry by providing a place where dancers from every background and with any skill level are welcome to meet, greet, inspire, be inspired, and learn in an inviting, and non-competitive, relaxed dance environment.”
