Krump Pop-Up Class w/ Josh "Kraiz" Washington

Josh “Kraiz” Washington, a native of Panama City, Florida, has made Austin his home for over a decade. Before dance became a competitive activity, a performance, or a job, it was always a fun pastime shared with friends. As a child, Kraiz was captivated by the high-energy Hip-Hop moves of the New Jack Swing era. During his teenage years, he was introduced to Popping and Krump and further explored various dance forms in college, including House, Modern, and Capoeira.

Kraiz, with over two decades of experience in dance, has performed and competed in various states and cities across the nation, including Alaska, California, and Texas. Currently, Kraiz is the Big Homie of the #KraizyNKonfuzed Krump family, a silver medalist in the 2024 Immortal Buck Krump Olympics (@immortalbuck.ib), and is also a choreographer for an upcoming show, “Say That Again!” with Early Era Collective (@earlyeracollective).
