Our Vision
The vision of Culture Shock Canada serves to use Hip Hop dance as a tool to promote positive values amongst individuals through youth outreach, community classes, and social interactions. Dance continues to be an important tool for preventative social work. Through Culture Shock Canada's Youth Outreach Programs, individuals have the opportunity to become leaders in the communities in which they live, while honing a new skill and talent through hip hop music and dance.
- Violence Prevention:
A non-competitive environment of fitness and dance offers a positive outlet for aggression and stressful emotions. The steering of youth away from violence, drugs, racism, and hatred leads them towards a lifestyle of acceptance, dedication, respect, and achievement.
- Skill Development:
The program aims to instill positive values, confidence, and self-esteem among its participants. Creativity of youth is both encouraged and validated. Youth will be trained to instruct others thereby creating potential employment opportunities and becoming leaders and role models for the community.
- Body Image:
Culture Shock's unique dance program merges components of fitness and aerobic activity. Youth will enjoy the benefits of a healthy body and lifestyle. With the awareness of fitness, youth will be encouraged to respect their bodies and thus engage in healthier habits
