Core Dance & Acrobatics Studios

A NEW ERA OF HIP-HOP IS COMING TO CORE.

We are beyond excited to welcome CALAN BRYANT to Core Dance & Acrobatics Studios, and he’s here to build.

Calan is an Atlanta-based choreographer, creative director, professional dancer and educator whose career spans television, film, national tours, the NBA, commercial entertainment and competitive dance.

His credits include:

• Netflix’s Stranger Things Season 5 and Raising Dion
• The NBA’s Memphis Grizzlies
• TV One’s Urban Honors
• Artists including Jagged Edge, Danity Kane, CeeLo Green, Killer Mike, Doug E. Fresh, D-Nice, DJ Spinderella, Hunxho and more
• Astra Awards recognition for choreography
• Multiple national competitive titles

Calan brings a uniquely versatile foundation built through Hip-Hop, Ballet, Modern, Jazz, Contemporary, Lyrical and African dance, but his approach goes far beyond learning choreography.

He trains dancers to understand groove, musicality, texture, rhythm, freestyle, dynamics, intention, individuality and the WHY behind their movement. His goal is to develop dancers who don’t simply execute choreography—they own it, communicate through it and perform it.

His philosophy: “Choreography that speaks like dialogue.”

Coming to Core this season:

🔥 Weekly Hip-Hop training
🔥 TWO competitive Hip-Hop crews
🔥 Authentic foundations and industry-driven training
🔥 High-level choreography and performance development

Our goal is to build Core’s Hip-Hop program to the same elite level, depth and competitive standard as every other genre we offer—and we could not be more excited about who is leading it.

CORE DANCERS… IT’S TIME TO WORK.

Competitive Crew Auditions: TBA
