Hey you guys, so it’s Saturday! This is the day of the week that goes by the fastest for me. Okay, so today I’m going to talk about dancing skills and tell you a few strategies to help make your dancing skills great. In hip hop a real dancer ALWAYS has their legs widely spread apart. In every move they make, every count they place, their legs are always exaggerated and spread apart; with this their body constantly remains in a low level, the closer to the ground the better. Their moves are also always placed, in other words, their moves are not just swinging your arms and trying to keep up what you’re being thought. Every move must be place by a style called popping, as demonstrated in the last post I made. You have to place your counts so that you can move with the beat. Dancing is all about dancing to the BEAT, not the lyrics or the beat of the lyrics. If you listen closely to music, the instrumental in the background and the lyrics both always have different beats. You want to make sure you are moving to the instrumental (the drums). With this your moves and dancing will always stand out, your dancing will be amazing to anyone who watches you. I’m sure you have all hear of the Jabbawockeez, well here is a video of their dancing. They ALWAYS move to the beat of the music, not the lyrics, they dance to even the slightest sound in their music. Pay close attention to their moves and you’ll notice that their dancing moves are not difficult at all, their counts are by far one of the easiest moves I’ve ever seen, but what makes their easy moves so amazing is that they are always moving to the beat and are extraordinary good at popping. Moving to the beat of the music makes their performance seem amazing and out of this world. Almost anyone can dance, but not to the beat, you gain these strategies by practicing how to pop and lock, you place every move with the beat. The video is kind of old, but their moves are so alive and great, their counts are not so difficult, but when they mix break dancing into their hip hop, their dancing stands out even more and has made them one of the best dancers in America.
