Hip Hop ConnXion is a non-for-profit hip hop dance team founded in March 1999 by Suave, professional choreographer and dancer who has appeared in various music videos and movies such as Save The Last Dance. The HHC is a professional dance troupe of all ages, sex and color each striving towards one common goal...to become part of the future of hip hop, spread a positive message and to be positive role models.
The HHC performs all over the country and are revered as one of the top hip hop groups in the country performing over 50 times a year.
With the HHC Elite team already established, The HHC CHICAGO DOWTOWN BRANCH was created in January 2007 through the merging of two dance companies, Pure Renditionz and The Collective Hip Hop Dance troupes. The creation of HHC is to further spread the mission statement of the HHC organization and to touch more lives and communities around the Chicagoland area. HHC is run out of downtown Chicago while the HHC Elite team (HQ/Main Branch) is run out of the suburbs of Chicago in Wheeling and Aurora.
HHC performs all over the suburbs and Chicagoland area. Most of the shows are primarily geared towards youth outreach programs, charity and/or special promotional events.
