From August 3 to 10, 2024, the World Hip Hop Dance Championship will be held in Phoenix, Arizona, USA. Ukraine will be represented by the T.N.Team Crew from the Hold The Rhythm Valky studio, which won the JV MEGACREW category at the Hip Hop International Ukraine competition in Kyiv in 2023.
For the first time in the history of the world championships, a team from the “iron” city of Kharkiv will participate in the competition.
The Hold The Rhythm Valky dance studio was founded in 2006. Its founder is Maksym Lytvyn, a choreographer and certified judge according to Hip-hop International Ukraine.
Over the years, more than 1.5 thousand children have realized their love for Hip-Hop dance. Now the studio has an extensive network of six groups and two branches. Two coaches are former members of the team.
The students of the Hold The Rhythm Valky studio regularly participate in various concert events, district, regional, national and international competitions, festivals and championships. The band’s creative treasury includes participation in about 200 festivals and competitions, victories and grand prix in the vast majority of them.
Among the honorable awards is the title of European Champion among boys and girls aged 15-16, won in Budapest (Hungary). The team defended the same title in 2017 at a creative competition in Austria.
In 2017-2019, the team won championships at open championships in Bulgaria, and in 2019, Hold The Rhythm Valky became the winner of the Ukrainian Hip-Hop Championship, getting into the top 5 best teams in Ukraine.
The Ukraine Reconstruction Fund is trying to fully support talented young people and announces a fundraiser for Kharkiv dancers. We hope for the help of everyone who cares.
11 pupils of the studio are going to go to the World Championships, and the management of the Foundation wishes our dancers bright performances and only victory!
