Raw Elementz is the largest hip hop dance crew at Columbia University, in New York City. The group is a student-choreoraphed dance crew that was established in 2001 by former Culture Shock dancer Kristin Liu. Raw Elementz is well-known for crowd-pleasing performances at both on and off-campus events from cultural shows to athletic events as well as promotional events and community service.
Raw Elementz incorporates various styles of dance (like house, popping, and breaking) into its choreography. New members are welcome from any dance background and with any level of experience to audition.
Also affiliated with the dance crew are the Raw Elementz Breakers, who perform both separately and together with the dance crew. They hold separate auditions and rehearsals due to the audition nature, but most of the time both groups tend to perform as one single unit. Raw's breakers also consistently hold open sessions, helping to connect the breakers to the greater NYC breakdancing community.
