History of Hip Hop Dance,Hip Hop Dance Information

 History of Hip Hop Dance,Hip Hop Dance Information Hip Hop Dancing Hip-hop dance as seen today is a broad category that incorporates a variety of old and new urban dance styles. The older styles that were created in the 1970s include uprock, breaking, and the funk styles. These dance styles all started independent of each other, half of them in New York and the others in California. Uprock was created in Brooklyn, N.Y. and breaking was created in The Bronx. In its earliest form, breaking began as elaborations on James Brown's "Good Foot" dance which came out in 1972. Breaking at this stage was not primarily floor oriented as is seen today; it started out as toprock which is performed standing up. In 1973, DJ Kool Herc invented the breakbeat. A breakbeat is a rhythmic musical interlude of a song that has been looped over and over again to extend that instrumental solo.

Floor Rocks|B Boying Moves Floor Rocks

Floor Rocks are "rocking" or style moves performed while much of your body (hips and/or shoulders) are touching the floor.

Top Rocks|B Boying Top Rocks Moves

The Top Rock is a combination of steps done while standing up. This is the entry dance that Bboys and Bgirls use to start their set. These steps are done before you do a power set or before you go down to the floor. This is the breaker's chance to show how well he or she can rock the beat and/or make gestures to intimidate their opponent. The object is to make a connection with the song either by gesturing on a horn or rhythm section while your feet usually step on the "snare" of the drum/beat section. Names of steps vary upon regions. There are an infinite amount of toprocks, you're limited only by your imagination. (Note: Uprock was a jazz/rock dance which influenced top rock, uprock is not toprock ).
