Top 8 will be holding Dance, DJ (Music), Rap and Graffiti workshops in partnership with Dance Limerick with guest artists giving master workshops in the following Street Dance Styles: Afro, Breakin, DJ, Graffiti, Hip-Hop Freestyle and Rap.
the Performance Platform will be going beyond Street Dance to include all the dance art forms.
One element of the Platform will be a showcase exchanging different dance styles, based on a music swap - so for example an Irish dancer will dance to contemporary style music and then a contemporary dancer will dance to Irish dance music and so forth.
