JAM ACROSS combines different street dance styles such as breaking, hip hop, popping, house and waacking into one single jam. One hour each of funk, hip hop and house music in their finest form. The House Jam also serves as a qualifier for the dance battle that follows - House 7 to Smoke. No matter which level you are, everyone is welcome to jam!
