HaviKoro is a group of friends that chose to dance instead of take part in negative activities that existed in their neighborhoods. They started out as a Houston-based hip hop/house crew and have gained lots of experience in several forms of dance such as break dancing, popping and funk. The group brings a positive message to young people around the world through Break Dance, Rap and other forms of Hip Hop style.
HaviKoro has had the pleasure of touring all over the world to places such as Helsinki, Moscow, Paris, Frankfurt, Hannover, Tokyo, Seoul, New Zealand, London, Zurich, Baku, and all major U.S. cities.
They have also shared the stage with artists and associations such as Destiny’s Child, Common, Limp Bizkit, Biz Markie, Coolio, Black Eyed Peas, Tre9, P.O.D., Geno V, Soulfruit, Tony Touch, Planet Funk, and sports teams such as The Houston Rockets and The Houston Comets.
HaviKoro has appeared in Germany’s largest HipHop magazine, Backspin. They were also interviewed for MTV on their most recent trip to Europe. For the past five years, members of HaviKoro have been Hip Hop instructors with the Houston Independent School District. HaviKoro was recently sponsored by a San Diego clothing company, Tribal Grear along with major artists such as Tony Touch, P.O.D. and Limp Bizkit.
HaviKoro has appeared for American Voices ‘Houston Artists Abroad’ program as the headline artists at the Baku Jazz Festival 2004 in Azerbaijan. They subsequently toured in 2005 in Vietnam where they were the first visit by U.S. Breakdancers in the history of the country. Other tours include Argentina, Venezuela, Bolivia and Peru as well as upcoming tours of Belarus, Denmark, Georgia, Italy and Greece in 2007.
