yes its true, ballet will help a lot with your core muscles and balance which will help in your hip hop. Ballet is also quite technical and you need to be aware of every part of your body while you are dancing. This will help in any form of dance.

What you heard is correct. Ballet is basically the core of most other dance styles. It's a good addition to any hip hop dance class you take because it gives you versatility, but also helps your fundamentals such as balance and controlling your movements. If you plan on taking hip hop seriously I would say add a ballet class, or even a ballet tech class. Good luck!
