There are several types of street dance
Introduction to the types of street dance
A lot of young people who just come into contact with street dance do not understand the various categories of street dance. I also briefly explain some of my point of view.
Taking action as the standard, street dance is divided into two categories: Hip-Hop and Breaking. (It can also be formed from the dance? Age? to be divided into Old School and New School two categories, later have time to discuss)
Breaking: skill-based street dance, requiring dancers to have a high degree of strength, flexibility and coordination, belonging to the more skillful sports dance. Teenagers who dance this type of dance are called B-Boy/B-Girl. in Shunde, Revenger Dance Team is the main dance team that specializes in Breaking.
Hip-Hop: Dance type street dance, there are various styles such as Popping, Locking, House, Jazz, Wave and so on. They are all less demanding than Breaking in terms of higher skills, but more demanding of the dancer's movement coordination and sense of dance, as well as physical flexibility and control. In Shunde, SKY dance team is the main Hip-Hop dance team.
Under the Hip-Hop category, I will say more about the style characteristics of Poping, Locking, House, Jazz, Wave and other dance styles.
Popping is commonly known as Robert (robot dance), is the use of body joints vibration, or muscle tension and relaxation, to make a continuous micro-amplitude movement, like a robot movement (the godfather of pop music, Michael Jackson, and the South Korean music Super Star Jung Ji-hoon a Rain is very good at Popping!
Locking (locking dance), all parts of the body (mainly hand rotation) to make rapid movements, and then in a position to make a precise pause, as if suddenly locked, resulting in dazzling beauty and sense of strength (Guangzhou Speed Dance Team's specialty);
House, a relatively young dance, and very diverse. House music is based on the Disco music of the 80's, adding Latin, African and other musical elements, the rhythm is very free and easy. Similarly, House dance also has a lot of Latin dance, African indigenous dance elements, and incorporates a lot of other popping, locking, Jazz dance moves. But compared to other dance styles, House focuses more on lower limb movements, i.e., footwork (Danny, the first runner-up of Star Dance, majors in dance styles);
Jazz, this dance style is very old; Old Jazz has been produced in the last two centuries in the UK, and wearing a suit with a walking stick to jump to the fast-paced dance steps (the famous international comedian, Charlie Chaplin, was famous worldwide for the hilarious Jazz dance), and this year's Third Jazz Festival will be held in the United States. New Jazz combines elements of pop music and modern dance, with large and sharp movements. In addition, there is also Girl Jazz, which is specially designed for girls, and it is very effective for girls to lose weight! (Early Shunde famous street dance group Y2K is the main New Jazz, and also with the work "Made In China" won the 01 Pepsi Street Dance Competition in Guangdong Province Finals runner-up, so far Shunde dance team has not broken through this achievement).
Wave is commonly known as the current dance, wave dance, is the movement from one side of the body parts like a wave to the other side. In recent years, a new style of Rave has been developed on the basis of Wave, which is characterized by a lot of twisting of the g-part.
