B-SIDE #4

Research & development Laboratory, symposium, workshops & training for street dancers

June 12 to 23, 2023

Presented and produced by Ebnflōh.
In co-production & in co-presentation with AGORA

B-SIDE #4  is a five-part event dedicated to thinking, training, and researching street dance. B-SIDE provides a stimulating platform that facilitates greater cultural exchange, and more focused exploration and insight into choreographic development for street dance, overall.
‘B-Side’, in Hip-Hop terms, refers to the backside of a vinyl record. Many have found lost gems, remixes, live cuts as well as limited editions!
