About Culture Shock LA

Since 1994, Culture Shock Los Angeles has used Hip-Hop dance forms to involve traditionally underserved populations in the arts, and promotes concepts such as self-expression, critical thinking, and cultural awareness through artistic development. CSLA continues to reach students throughout the greater Los Angeles area, incorporating key components of the California Common Core and Visual and Performing Arts (VAPA) Standards in its curricula. Through dance, our programs build on core themes such as teamwork, celebrating diversity, and self-expression with the intent of creating community-minded and self-confident artists.

With support from the LA County Department of Arts & Culture, LA City’s Department of Cultural Affairs, and DEA Educational Foundation, Culture Shock LA reaches thousands of youths and adults each year through instructional workshops, school assemblies, and professional performances.
