Podcast 226 - Link - A Different Perspective on Hip-Hop and House

In episode 226, host Galit Friedlander and guest Link (dancer, educator, and one of the most respected voices on hip-hop and house culture) discuss what it means to truly understand hip-hop and house, not just as dance styles, but as cultures shaped by people, places, music, and community.
Link shares stories from the clubs that influenced generations of dancers, the mentors who shaped his perspective, and why he never thought of himself as someone who "trained." He simply loved to dance. Together, we explore how understanding who you're learning from can deepen your understanding of the movement itself, why dancing and teaching require different skill sets, and how the social spaces that gave birth to these dances continue to shape the way we move today.
Whether you're a street dancer, commercial dancer, educator, or simply someone who wants to deepen your understanding of hip-hop and house, this conversation offers a thoughtful perspective that may change the way you approach both the dance and the culture.
