Hip-hop instructor Marc Pacampara headlines a free benefit Hip Hop Extravaganza, Sunday, May 20, at Ignite Dance and Yoga in North Bend.

For “Hip Hop for Hunger,” two dance sessions, 3 p.m. for ages 7 to 12 and 4 p.m. for ages 13 and older, are planned, as hip-hoppers sweat for a cause—the Mount Si Food Bank. Bring a cash or canned-food donation.

A dancer since 2003, Pacampara had the itch to put his own style on display. He became a choreographer, teaching at Westlake Dance Center since 2007, with performances including the Jingle Bell Bash, Seattle Sea-fair, Battle of Seattle, Unrated, STG presents: Dance This, The Carnival: Choreographer’s Ball, and Fox’s Mobbed. Pacampara lives in Seattle.

Ignite is located at 472 East North Bend Way. Learn more at www.ignitedanceandyoga.com or call (425) 292-9880.
