Freestyle + Floetry Tutorial

Freestyle & Floetry Tutorial is a bi-annual hip-hop studies seminar held offered at New College of Florida, facilitated by and featuring students and local artists. The first and only course of its kind in the liberal arts, students spend the semester composing works of their own while unpacking the history and societal implications of the classics that have seen us through to today.

Community Presentations + Workshops

n.e.Bodied Ent preaches what we practice! We've presented our research behind the Freestyle & Floetry course at several conferences and community panels. Recently, we've partnered with the Arts and Cultural Alliance of Sarasota for summer teaching workshops for elementary and middle school age students. A summer school program is also in the works.
