The Cypher Spot has been a home for many since we opened in Inglewood in 2016. We build character, skill, confidence, and perseverance in our students using the elements of urban culture (dance, art, and media). We host daily classes for our students in Hip Hop, Breakdance, Krump, House, Popping, painting, video production, and much more. We foster creative abilities of youth through programs focused on learning foundational knowledge and having them apply it to their own personal art. Students are often challenged to create their own dance choreography, create original pieces of art, and compete and showcase freestyle/improvisational dance.

Not only do we teach our students the application of the art but we also focus on the history behind it too. This empowers the youth to see that even they can create an art form, a dance style, or an art piece that can change the world and reach past the borders of our city. Many styles of dance that we focus on originated and/or blossomed in the streets, parties, and backyards of Los Angeles that now stretch all around the world. We love to teach the history of these cultures so that our students may find representation in them.

Through our classes and events, our goal is to encourage our students to challenge themselves through new styles in dance and art which in return will encourage critical thinking, problem solving, leadership, collaboration, and creativity. In this we provide our students a chance to share their voice, release, and their energy.
