HIP HOP 4 Wellness
This year, Hip Hop Culture celebrates its 50th Anniversary on Aug 11th, 2023. Many are unaware that this global art form and culture, which generates billions of dollars worldwide, was created by youth as young as 9 & 10 years old. Hip Hop and its art forms (elements) were created by young people as a way to cope with life's challenges such as poverty, racism, oppression, and violence.
What can our young people learn from this history now and the Power of Self- Expression to support them on their own wellness journeys?
Our POR AMOR Hip Hop 4 Wellness Assemblies Feature:
* Assemblies tailored for grades K-3, 4-8, and High School
Assembly and Workshop Packages
Our most popular service is combining our assemblies with student and parent workshops. This reduces the cost of these individual services and provides great value to our school communities.
A example of a custom program for a school could look like
Day 1: Two assemblies for K-3 and 4-8 or two high school assemblies in the morning or afternoon
Day 2: Workshops with specific grades that would benefit from going deeper into the wisdom and tools shared in assemblies. Some school like for us to work with specific classes more than once so we come back a week later for session #2 of workshops.
Day 3: A parent wellness event booking in the evening on a date that works for the school community.
Wellness Workshops:
Our wellness workshops are 60-80 minutes and share wisdom, wellness tools and use the power of self expression through the arts
Workshops themes to choose from are:

Our assembly then shifts from within to outside to support students in recognizing the influence their emotions, words and actions having on others around them. We challenge students to take responsibility for their energy and to give what they wish to receive.
