Maurice ""Moe" Dean is an alumnus of Lehman College, holding a Bachelor's degree in Theatre. An aspiring basketball player and former martial artist, Maurice kind of stumbled into hip hop dance. In 2004, while stage managing a show called "Movement Revolution" featuring the work of Kraven Seneca Dance Company at Lehman College, Maurice asked to audition a piece to be entered in the show. Having no background in Hip Hop dance prior aside from learning how to wave incidentally while mocking a friend, he with a few friends, created a piece and a group called Hip Hop 101. Long story short the piece was well received and Maurice was asked to choreograph a show shortly after featuring his work, that show was called Hip Hop Theory: The Evolution of Hip Hop Dance. Maurice's vision of Hip Hop Dance has always been unique, incorporating elements of theatre in many of his pieces. With his unique style of rhythmic attenuation he attempts to capture the soul of the accompaniment and express it's emotional content with each movement. The founder of Hip Hop Theory Dance Company and The Each 1 Teach One Dance Workshop Series, he works to teach and unite the hip hop community while inspiring change in the current standings of hip hop dance and the industry. "Hip Hop dancers must have a strong foundation; without having a strong comprehension of their craft the art form begins to degrade and its key components, history and authenticity will be lost. Be a part of the revolution in movement and help further hip hop dance securing what we love will live on for others to share after we are gone."
