If you’ll be needing a dance floor for hip hop in an area prone to moisture, like a basement or garage, this is a great choice. It has a modular raised design that allows for air flow underneath - preventing the growth of mold and mildew. It comes in many attractive wood design options, and it is very easy to install by laying it on a flat, smooth surface like concrete and snapping the tiles together with your foot and allowing them to float.
The commercial grade vinyl surface will never need to be resurfaced or refinished, so you can spend your time dancing instead of doing maintenance on your floor.
EZ Portable Dance Floor is a solution for hip hop and all forms of dance. It has a professional appearance and can be installed over virtually any type of subfloor.

It has a non-absorbent, non-reflective and non-skid surface that delivers the controlled slip that dancers need.
Jacob Rassi, a 13-year-old dancer who has worked with Disney, starred in Kidz Bop music videos, and two national commercials was forced to dance at home when the Covid pandemic began. It wasn’t long before his family realized their flooring surfaces were hard on his body, so they installed the Rosco Adagio Marley floor for him, which he has danced on every day since it was installed. He finds it to be like dancing on a professional studio floor.
Rosco Adagio Marley Full Roll is a product that can be used for all dance types, regardless of the type of shoes, including hip hop.

Leona Sangalang is an 8-year old dancer who has been enjoying dance since she was age 4 and trains in many styles of dance, including hip hop. She trains on a professional marley dance floor, so when the Covid-19 quarantine took effect, her mom decided to provide a similar experience at home by installing a Sport Plus Designer Foam subsurface directly over her living room laminate flooring, and she added a layer of reversible Rosco marley dance flooring to the top of it. Leona loves the floor as it makes her feel like she is in a studio.
