Features Harry Zhang (@harryz_dances) teaching intro to Locking!

✨ Harry Zhang is a versatile street dancer, specializing in Locking and Breaking. He has trained under many pioneers of the Canadian street dance pioneers such as Caroline “Lady C” Fraser, Glizzi DeMariano, Andrew “Pyro” Chung, to name a few. He loves to share his passion for street dance and the culture across the GTA!

✨ Locking emerged from the West Coast in the 1970s, and was created by Don Campbell. This style of dance is usually performed to funk music, and the movement is characterized by locks, wrist rolls, points, high fives and more.

Dance workshops are curated by one of our residents DJs Iced Misto (@icedmistoplease). She’ll be absent for this month’s edition.
