Diving Deeper in Krump w/ Brui5er & Konkrete 
presented by Hiphophuis
This is a once in a lifetime opportunity to dive deeper in Krump with two world-
class pioneers. Brought to you in partnership with Hiphophuis Rotterdam.

Konkrete AKA “The student of Krump” is one of the most famous dancers in
our community, having shared the stage with many artists including Beyoncé.
His flashy and entertaining Westcoast style is sure to bring the hype to every
dancefloor he touches! On the other hand we have Brui5er, the two times EBS World Champion.
Known for his abstract and raw style, his intricate and detailed approach to the
dance draws you in with every movement. Hailing from the Eastcoast, he’s
been one of the most exciting Krumpers to ever do it.

In this Masterclass we research their two different Krump visions and how to
merge them as one. This is your opportunity to explore and find out how to
apply them both to your own dance.


The List 
DO YOU HAVE WHAT IT TAKES TO MAKE THE LIST!?️
These are the legendary Block Out battles using the traditional Krump call out

Both dancers go off on their own songs with no time limit per round.
But before battling, first you gotta make The List. Everyone can apply, but only
the dancers who’ve been labbing and battling the hardest will make it to The
List. This is the ultimate acknowledgment of your hard work, and the chance to
prove yourself against the hypest dancers of the moment.

Behind The Decisions

Behind the Decision is a year-round program that travels European Krump
tournaments, gathering knowledge and insights on HOW TO JUDGE KRUMP.
We understand the struggle of becoming an internationally booked judge. So
we want to help you enhance the factors that contribute to YOU being booked.
We believe theoretical training, practical judging experience and exchange of
knowledge with Krump masters are key in this process. Behind the Decision
provides the opportunity to gain all this, while also sharpening your dance skills
and personal growth. You’ll get access to mentorship from experienced judges
to strengthen your artistic vision.

 

Redwall Session

The worldwide-known Redwall Session has been a staple of Dutch Krump
Culture for many years. Serving as the main meeting point for the community,
this has been the place where we learn, share and go off together. This will be
a special edition, with our Judge panel joining us for the session. This is your
chance to lab and session together with international Krump masters!

 

Krump Exposition by Brandon

Krump is more than just a dance. It’s an artform touching everything we do,
even and especially in other disciplines. Brandon showcases this in a powerful
way in this Krump Exposition, consisting of photo’s and footage of Krump, by
Krump, and inspired by the essence and energy of Krump.
