The Battle is an international festival organised by the Studio Hop school in Toulouse, in the south of France. It highlights Afro-American cultures and how they are all linked and make our dance and music richer. 500 dancers come from all over the world to experience this unique event: classes of Lindy Hop, Solo Jazz and Urban dances, talks to keep learning outside of class, a wide range of competitions (including mixed solo jazz / urban dances battles 2v2, but also our classic M&M and Strictly categories), and of course 3 awesome parties with live bands to dance all weekend! Come join us!
