Your Space, Your Pace: Why Open Training Matters
At FOCO FLAVA, we believe some of the best growth doesn’t happen in structured classes—it happens in open training. That’s why we’re excited to invite dancers of all backgrounds and styles to our Summer Open Training, in partnership with the CSU Hip Hop Dance Club (Instagram) sessions every Monday at CSU’s Lory Student Center.
Running from May 19 through August 11, 2025, these free weekly sessions are designed for dancers to explore, experiment, and express themselves in a supportive, low-pressure environment.
What is Open Training?
Open training is an unstructured dance session where participants can use the time however they like—practicing moves, freestyling, rehearsing for battles, or simply vibing with others. Unlike a class, there’s no instructor leading the room. Instead, dancers build off each other’s energy and experience.
Why It’s Valuable
Freedom to Grow at Your Own Pace – Whether you're refining footwork or trying a move for the first time, open training lets you dictate your own path.
Safe Space to Experiment – No pressure, no judgment. Just music, movement, and self-expression.
Community Energy – When dancers train together, everyone gets better. From spontaneous cyphers to shared drills, the vibe is collaborative and uplifting.
Who Should Come?
Anyone! Whether you're a beginner discovering your groove or a battle-ready breaker, this space is built for everyone. Bring your crew, meet new people, and push your craft further.

A Place to Build More Than Moves
Open training isn’t just about dance—it’s about connection. It’s where ideas are exchanged, confidence is built, and a real sense of community takes root. Whether you're prepping for a performance or just exploring movement, these sessions are a place to be yourself and grow.
Let’s build together—your space, your pace.
