With all attributes considered, Shabba-Doo is truly a street-dance icon, pioneer, and legend. We urge teachers and students alike to make Shabba-Doo’s workshop an essential part of your education. For one day only, learn the true technique and terminology of Locking, Shway Style (Waackin’), and Soul Power, “the foundational building blocks of soul dance” right here in London!

Shabba-Doo is part of a unique cadre of streetdance pioneers and the most successful streetdancer of all time. For his general lessons Shabba-Doo will take you through the true essence of the original dance styles including orgins and mood.
