ABOUT THE WORKSHOP
Open level
Through his workshops, KAPELA focuses not only on movement and technique but also on musicality, groove, club culture, and the social foundations of House dance. As a DJ, he is known for creating uplifting and soulful experiences, blending House, Afro House, Deep House, and soulful sounds that connect dancers and music lovers alike. This year marks his third appearance at Hip Hop Weekend, where he returns to represent the House category, bringing his knowledge, passion, and energy both on and off the dance floor.
What thrives Kapela is to bring people together through music. It is all about giving, feeling and connecting with an ultimate goal: make people happy and dance.
Kapela is born and raised in Paris, a member of the world famous dance crew Serial Stepperz and Wanted Posse and specialises in Toprock and House Dance.
He started Breaking in 1999 and his unique musicality meant that he was noticed during toprock and footwork battles at big events such as Street Star in Sweden and the Black Sea Contest in Russia. In 2004 he joined the International Dance Academy (IDA) and during his 3 years there, he grew artistically and technically. A major turning point in Kapela’s personal and artistic life was when he met Babson from Wanted Posse and discovered House Dance.
With all of his experience and training, Kapela innovates by mixing together all of his influences to create his renowned style. Kapela has competed and judged worldwide and is undoubtedly one of France’s greatest exports. His international reputation is well established, and he although he has already achieved many top accolades, Kapela believes that the best is yet to come.
