(1): House Dance -------------------------------------------------------------------------
What is House ? House is a part of New School Dance, which started in 1988. It is a dance that uses house music. Hip-hop music is mostly listened to by black people in the United States, but house music is loved by people of all races and all kinds of people. house is like the disco music of the 70s. House is like the disco music of the 70's, so there are a lot of cultural colors in the house club. House dance was built in this environment: Hispanic with a background of Sala or Milenge, Africans doing African dance, Brazilians doing Capoeira (an Afro-Brazilian art), B-Boys, Hip-Hop dancers, Jazz dancers, Tap dancers, all of these people created New York's House Dance. House dance. Capoeira's influence on House is huge, says Ejoy:In House, it's the music that controls your body, but in Hip-Hop you have to control your body to meet the beat. This means that there is more Free Style in House dancing than in Hip-Hop, and House emphasizes more on footwork. In New York, there are often many problems in Hip-Hop Clubs, for example fighting is one of them. This makes it impossible for people to just enjoy the dance. This makes House Club very popular in New York. The most popular house club in New York is the Sound Factory Bar on Wednesdays.
(2): Breaking ------------------------------------------------------------------- ---------
B-boying is a well-known hip hop dance like Breaking, which consists of top or up rock, footwork, spinning moves (power moves), and freeze moves. Bronx. The term B-boy or B-boying was developed by a DJ named Kool Herc who "grinds" turntables in the Bronx every day, and the term B-boys is used to refer to people who dance during the stop-start part of the music. (Perhaps we could say that those who specialize in the Old school series, especially BREAKIN', are called B-Boys.) Then, along with the DJs who kept repeating the beat, the breakbeats were born. Although people tend to explore the power moves aspect, true b-boys should be well versed in all the principles of b-boying. There are two types of b-boys.
One focuses on emphasizing power moves and their merging. The Rock Steady Crew emphasizes footwork to show the individual style of the dancer. Even though power moves have a strong impact and are quite energetic, it is difficult to incorporate personal style into these moves. In spinning, the power moves just don't fit in with the beat. It's more akin to gymnastics than dancing. Because of these factors, the Rock Steady Crew suggests that the emphasis on the footwork style is on the 1990's style of breaking, which is the most popular style of hip hop dancing, and just as new school dancing such as hip hop and house has spread to some major cities in USA and Japan in limited numbers, it has become the most popular style of hip hop dancing in the world. While new school dancing such as hip hop and house has spread to a limited number of major cities in the USA and Japan, it has spread all over the world.
Originality: Their dance was called Good Foot, after James Brown's recordings; Good Foot was the first freestyle dance, with drops and spins, and similar steps to the early days of breaking. The best way to describe Good Foot is based on Michael Holman, who imagined the female drum major's high kick in the I Love You Upstairs ceremony, which struck him as a static movement in the rhythm of a drumline. As DJs invented new ways to lengthen the stop-start beats on records, dancers had more time to invent and experiment with new steps. Soon, dropping down to the ground and poppin up again on the beat became the standard steps of the dance and nicknamed the first generation of b-boys boie-oie-oings. while boie-oie-oings began to brace their arms against their bodies so that their feet and legs could perform near-gymnastic steps, footwork became popular. footwork became popular. At the same time, a new dance step began to emerge in Brooklyn called the Brooklyn Rock Uprocking. they were just as well known.
The first famous b-boys were the Nigger Twins, Clark Kent, and the Zulu Kings, but around the 1977s, breaking lost its popularity among black kids and almost faded into obscurity. However, breaking was revived by a new generation of b-boys. A man named Puerto Rican breathed new life into it and took it to another level. They started to add a lot of more difficult stunts and invented a lot of new moves in breaking. Jimmy Lee and Joe Joe's Crazy Leg, backspins and windmills were developed by members of the Rock Steady Crew, and I'd like to point out that there were other breakers from New York City who were also supporters of b-boying. In addition, Bruce Lee and other kung fu stars and martial artists had a profound influence on the culture of b-boying. The popularity of kung fu movies around the world in the mid to late 1970's had a particular impact on b-boying in New York. Many martial arts moves have been incorporated into b-boying. For example, kung fu moves used to roll up from the floor, which are now known as windmills if repeated over and over again, became more popular in the 1980s.
This is due to the 1983 Flashdance movie. (Actually, it was before Flashdance. ( Actually, there were two movies before Flashdance, but Flashdance was the first movie to feature b-boying. Although, it is not a movie that focuses on b-boying.) But a small part of the movie that featured b-boying and popping on the street was impressive enough for people all over the world to start b-boying. After Flashdance, many breaking movies were made. movies, such as "Breakin'", "Breaking 2" and "Beat Street". Beat Street," which featured the Rock Steady Crew and the New york city breakers, is one of the most memorable movies of all time. B-boying became so popular thanks to the media, and because there was so much media publicity, the television media started to stop broadcasting things about b-boying, which made some people think that b-boying was just a frenzy for a while. Immediately, many people began to think that b-boying had disappeared. So, some b-boys started to stop letting the mass media influence b-boying and avoid letting the mass media distort b-boying. b-boying had a brief moment in the winter after 1985 or 1986.
However, around 1990, b-boying was resurrected. No one quite understands exactly why, but what is certain is that it was brought up by supporters who never gave up on b-boying. As far as I know, California was the first place to popularize b-boying again.
And now, the B-Boy Summit and the Rock Steady Annual, competitions organized by b-boys, are held every year and attract many b-boys from all over the world to come together to preserve their culture, and even try to reach another level.
(3): POPING DANCE--------------------------------------------------------------------------

(4): Copoeira Dance -----------------------------------------------------------
Capoeira originated in Brazil, South America, mainly due to the slavery policy in South America. The aristocrats and slaveholders used force to oppress the Afro-Brazilian slaves (black Africans who were sold into slavery in Brazil), and when the slaves couldn't stand the oppression of the aristocrats and slaveholders, they all started to fight back to gain their freedom, and the hands of these black slaves were chained, so they naturally started to develop a variety of foot attacks to fight back against these oppressive aristocrats and slaveholders, and this was considered a kind of Brazilian fighting technique in the early days. In the early days, it was a kind of Brazilian fighting technique. Later, it evolved into a popular Brazilian dance art, which was slowly accompanied by percussion instruments. This traditional Afro-Brazilian art is also a dance. One of the cultural weapons used to break the shackles of Brazilian slavery. The music is used to teach the center of the melody during the capoeira and to mask its power. In front of the slaveholders, it looks like a game, a juggling dance, and at the same time like a joke. Eventually, the slaveholders realized the power of the capoeira and banned it, and during the slaveholding years, if you were caught dancing the capoeira, death was the penalty. For nearly four hundred years the capoeira was taught and practiced in secret.
It was not until 1930 that this traditional African art could be legally taught and practiced. Capoeira's fluid dance movements are done fairly close to the ground, moving to an ascending melody or defeating an opponent's attack. The most basic dance move, the ginga, was created by the people of Capoeira Angola, which is a movement that changes from one side to the other. Other movements include inversions with the hands, or any attack-like movement with the feet. The centerpiece of the art is the music led by the berimbau, an instrument made of steel strings that resemble a bowl, with a loud echo like a gourd. When capoeira Angola is played, the berimbau signals the beginning and end of the game, and controls the style and speed of play. berimbau is often accompanied by the pandeiro (a tambourine tambour), the agogo (an African Bell), and the atabaque (a conga-like instrument). atabaque (a conga-like drum). Capoeira Moves Explained Understanding Capoeira Angola Moves Names, Nowadays Capoeira, the Capoeira we see nowadays, is mostly combined with House to form a new type of dance. With the popularity of tribal style dance music in the world, there are more House dancers utilizing Capoeira and House steps to develop a new type of dance. More House dancers are utilizing Capoeira and House steps to develop new dance styles and performance styles by combining it with tribal music. Or sometimes it becomes a floor move in the House step, which some ignorant dancers stupidly call Breaking, or even think it is an African dance without understanding its origin, and give it the strange name of "Chopper Dance". In the minds of these Afro-Brazilians, Capoeira is not only one of their national dance arts, but also their game.
(5): Uprock Dance --------------------------------------------------------------
Uprock is not as well known and popular as Breaking and Electric Boogie. Uprock is a kind of dance battle, where the dancers are quite close to each other without actually touching, it's very fast and looks like a kung fu battle, but with more movement and rhythm than kung fu, and each move has its own meaning, such as: I'm going to cut your throat, or: I'm going to cut your throat, or: I'm going to cut your throat, or: I'm going to cut your throat, or: I'm going to cut your throat, or: I'm going to cut your throat. throat, or like: I despise you. It sounds quite violent, but again, it's less violent than fighting, even though it's obviously provoking like someone else.
There are also moves where you grab a part of your opponent's body and make a sniffing motion to show that you can do better than your opponent, and then whatever your opponent does, you do the same thing back, which is a standard process, but of course you can do whatever you want to do.
Uprock's history can be traced back to the earliest days of the 1970s, when the form of Uprock was already being practiced. The history of Uprock can be traced back to the early 70's, where the form of Uprock was already taking shape, and if you didn't keep up with the music, you lost. In the middle of the street dance, the crowd would decide who the winner was, and of course you might not trust your friends to be fair because they would always say you won (if your friends liked you) and your opponent's friends would always say he won. There are now more and more Uprock dancers dancing solo , not street dancing with their opponents.Uprock dancers are now also dancing Breaking and Boogie and Breaking and Boogie dancers are starting to add Uprock moves into their dance moves.
