Field notes
The syllabus groups movement into six historical families rather than beginner and advanced levels, dating Bogle from the late 1980s and tracing Social Moves to Jamaican sound-system yards of the 1950s. The homepage says video teaching will open on 30 October 2026, with monthly passes listed at €15.90 and €69.90; it also advertises a free “Back to Basics” route. Competition details include workshops and battle categories, though the extracted text cuts off before the full event information.
