In the early 1980s freestyle dancing, or street dancing, broke into the mainstream thanks in part to L.A.’s vibrant dance scene. Since then it has grown and evolved and a whole new crop of talent has emerged, including 14-year-old Hannah Rodriguez - also known as Hannah Pop - whose dad is one of the original pioneers of this improvisational dance style.
