In the 1980s, DJ Kool Herc, who is known as the "Father of Hip-Hop", created the concept of B-Boy, also known as Breaking Boy. every year, many countries around the world have a number of competitions organized for the B-Boys, and the more famous one is the BOTY (B-Boy), which is held once a year. The most famous are BOTY (B-Boy of The Year) and B-BoyChampion in the United Kingdom, where hundreds of contestants from more than 10 countries take part. The winners of the competitions quickly gain fame and become teenage stars.
Hip-Hop: Dance-based street dance with a variety of styles such as Poping, Locking, Electric, Turbo and House. None of them require as much skill as Breaking, but they are more demanding of the dancer's movement coordination and sense of dance, as well as physical flexibility and control. Good Hip-Hop Dancers also need hard practice. Because Hip-Hop Dance is not as skillful as Breaking and lacks competitiveness, it was not given enough attention by street dancers before, but now with the enhancement of the concept of dance, this situation has changed, and even B-Boys have begun to practice and many all-around good street dancers have appeared.
There is another way of saying that street dance, collectively known as Hip-Hop, consists of two main categories---Old Shool and NewShool. OldShoo
l dance includes Locking, Poping, Breaking, and Mechanical Dance. OldShool includes Locking, Poping, Breaking, and Wave, while NewShool is generally more "gentle", with less footwork, more head and hand movements, and more emphasis on the rhythmic movement of the upper part of the body. Within the same rhythmic section, NewSchool is more varied and fluid, and more natural in its flow, while OldShool is more rhythmically dense.
In our country street dance is currently divided into two categories: fitness street dance and popular street dance. Street dance in the gym is called fitness street dance, which is the most basic and simple content covered by the popular street dance, and is conducive to the physical and mental development of the part of the distillation of the combination.
POP mechanical dance. Second, LOCKING lock dance. Third, BREAKING break dance. Fourth, WAVEING current dance. The above four for the father and mother of the street dance, combined with the birth of a new street dance children have two kinds: HIPHOP DANCE and HOUSE DANCE. these are alien and perverted, I think so that we should be able to explain easier to understand and absorb.
In fact, in addition to the six categories of street dance, there are two other forms of street dance: NEW SCHOOL DANCE and OLD SCHOOL DANCE. as if a lot of annoyance, there are not a whole lot of don't panic! I'm washing your brain!
The next thing I want to tell you is the essence of POP DANCE: it originated from robotic movements and forms. I remember when the King of Pop, Mike Jackson, synchronized his dance with a robot on national television (around 1969), and it's been popular ever since, amazing! The key point is the 'staccato point'. Unleash the power at once. Instead of a robot, the staccato point of mechanical dance is not so heavy, but just sliding through a sudden stop. Mechanical dance requires a lot of isolation (one side of the body moves and the rest of the body doesn't move). But popping doesn't, it's better to have your whole body vibrating (depending on the situation). The use of popping will be each beat point jam, preferably with the music jam just right, how to "jam"? ..... Simply put, the muscles are instantly tightened, and relatively speaking, the muscles are loosened up when they are not jammed, but they are not just flopping around.
The second is LOCKUNG DANCE lock dance - it is understood that this is by the ancient cave blacks, saw the cave Chinese play nunchucks the appearance of the development of street dance, two hands fling to fling really like nunchucks! I admire the unique creativity of the black people here, the so-called natural dance music nation. Mostly hand movements. There are many styles and there is no right or wrong way to do it. There is no right or wrong way to do it. You can add a lot of things to it after you transform it. It is divided into two parts: Twist & Lock. (I can't explain it clearly with words, if you want to know, please contact your school's hot dance club.) Anyway, Lock is a bit similar to popping, while twist is a bit difficult to practice, and it's not easy to make it look good. It's really hard to explain this in words. To put it simply, Locking emphasizes on the feeling of point, although this is the prerequisite for every kind of dance, in the Locker's view, the posture, direction, angle, and even the momentum of the point must be strictly demanded, or else it's not considered Locking. The fact that you can't do Locking is a real cause for concern!
BREAKING DANCE - which combines Chinese Kung Fu - really can't stand to give it marvelous! Chinese Kung Fu is added to many BREAKING DANCE moves, such as flips, lunges, rolls, falls... all kinds of weird tricks. All kinds of weird tricks, awesome! You won't be able to do it if you haven't practiced it (except for geniuses). There are - leg rows, front and back side air/hand flips, jumping spins, frog spins, windmills, helicopters, thunderbolt drops, pommel horse, head spins... and all kinds of combinations. Spinning is the main focus, with flips as a supplement. But definitely not monkeying around...there's a fair amount of danger in it.
As for the WAVE DANCE current dance - it has a lot of dance movements and concepts like electrical conductivity, wave to be able to transmit to every part of the body is considered to be practiced. As long as you have a good understanding of it, you will be able to master it, it's a bit hard but not too hard!
The R&B is a new and exciting way to get your feet wet.
S RAVE: This is the new generation of hip hop instead of hip hop. The reason for this is that there is no fixed beat, and it is usually a shiny, slender person who jumps (I haven't seen a fat guy jumping). rave is a very confident woman, and there are some drunken playboys mixing in it (Brain full of SEX all night!). What are NEW SCHOOL and OLD SCHOOL? The east coast of the United States, New York ---- originated NEW STYLE of NEW SCHOOL DANCE, because they put the four street dance elements I mentioned above fused together, and then modified and deformed, then it is the beautiful NEW SCHOOL DANCE. Then say the west coast of L.A. - more popular OLD SCHOOL DANCE, that is to say, they are from the original flavor, not the original flavor, not the original flavor. That is to say, they are in the original flavor, not the street dance deformation perversion, to strengthen their own style, you can find that the dancers over there, will be their own expertise in the street dance project dance is very magical, can be said to be out of the blue, but does not refer to each person.
