ARTIST BIO
Hiplet™ fuses classical pointe technique with African, Latin, hip-hop, and urban dance styles that are rooted in communities of color.
Their show was specifically designed to make ballet accessible to all by mixing the traditional dance style with current, popular songs that will be familiar to all audiences. Hiplet's performances incorporate the rhythms of African drums with Tchaikovsky, arabesques and beat-boxing, and even Tango en pointe - all while showcasing Hiplet's trademark sass, hip movements, and struts - against recognizable popular music from Black Violin to Beyoncé and Prince.
After features on Good Morning America, Buzzfeed, and The Huffington Post, this new art form went viral and has now amassed over a BILLION views. Since then, partnerships with Mercedes Benz, Vogue's Anna Wintour, New York and Paris Fashion Week, W Magazine, Versace, and Old Navy have culminated in an incredible worldwide demand for a live show featuring Homer Bryant's innovative technique.
