Does urban belong to street dance?

Don't belong.

Urban dance means many forms that emphasize the integration of dance, and it is not a kind of dance. In order to present excellent visual effects, general choreographers will combine various dance types to form a new dance form.

Urban can combine the control of Poppin, the power of Power Jazz, the footwork of house, the rhythm of krump and locking, which is very inclusive.

Dance characteristics

Dancers in urban dance don't regard physical movements as pure competitive points, but present the dance itself as a work of art, and dancers in urban dance are more freedom-oriented. Many dancers even cross the border and have multiple identities, such as choreographer, film director, producer and DJ, which broadens their horizons and makes their dance works very individual.

The choreography of urban dance is not only a test for dancers, but also a development process of dancers' innovative thinking. As far as dance itself is concerned, it blurs the classification of traditional street dance and breaks the barriers between dances.
