HIPLET BALLERINAS Specifically designed to make ballet accessible to all, Hiplet™ is a fusion between classical pointe technique, Hip-Hop, African, Latin and other urban dance styles to create a never-before-seen type of dance. Hiplet™ was created by Artistic Director Homer Hans Bryant in the early 90s with the goal of mixing ballet with popular songs familiar to the audience while simultaneously maintaining its classical roots. The artform has since blossomed and performances incorporate music and dance rooted in communities of color. The rhythms of African drums with Tchaikovsky, arabesques and beat-boxing or even Tango en pointe are all showcased in Hiplet™ performances with its trademark sass, hip movements, and struts, all under popular music from Black Violin to Beyonce.
