    - The Bronx hip hop scene emerged in the mid-1970s from neighborhood block
    parties thrown by the Black Spades, an African-American group that has been
    described as being a gang,
    - Brother-sister duo Clive Campbell, a.k.a. DJ Kool Herc, and Cindy Campbell
    additionally hosted DJ parties in the Bronx and are credited for the rise in the genre
    -In 1990, Ronald "Bee-Stinger" Savage also known as the “Son of The
    Hip Hop Movement” is credited for coining the term "Six elements of
    the Hip Hop Movement” which are Consciousness Awareness, Civil
    Rights Awareness, Activism Awareness, Justice, Political Awareness, and

    8 OF THE MOST ICONIC HIP-HOP DANCE
    STYLES
    1) B-boying (Breakdancing)
    2) Locking and Popping
    3) Funk
    4) Liquid Dance
    5) Boogaloo
    6) Reggae
    7) Lyrical
    8) Stepping
    B-BOYING (BREAKDANCING)
    •Thought to be one of the very first styles of Hip
    Hop, B-boying is characterized by acrobatic
    Power Moves, upright moves, and footwork.
    Dancers also punctuate their routines with a
    move known as the Freeze.
    LOCKING AND POPPING
    • While technically two styles, Locking and Popping
    often go hand in hand. Locking involves fast
    movements, sharp pauses, and exaggerated gestures.
    Popping, on the other hand, is a bouncy style that
    requires major use of counter-tempo.
    FUNK
    • Funk, which is a fusion of Disco and Soul, uses a
    mixture of fluid and sharp movements and is often
    highly choreographed. Locking and Popping are
    also often incorporated into this dance style.
    LIQUID DANCE
    • As its name implies, Liquid Dance is a fluid and
    graceful dance with a focus on the arms and hands.
    It may include some forms of pantomime and
    advanced dancers will use a range of body
    movements.
    BOOGALOO
    •Another fluid like style, Boogaloo as taught by
    Hip Hop dance studios, involves the entire body
    moving smoothly, often with the rolling of the
    hips, head, and knees.
    REGGAE
    •If we had to pick a Hip Hop style that invokes
    sensuality, it would be Reggae for its Latin
    influences mixed with more traditional Hip Hop
    movements set to the modern evolution of
    Reggae music.
    LYRICAL
    • Lyrical is a unique style of Hip Hop in that it tells a
    story and is danced to the words of the music
    instead of the beat. It is often fluid in nature and
    more interpretive than other forms of Hip Hop.
    STEPPING
    • Stepping is a group dance that involves using body
    movements to create percussive beats. This is
    accomplished through:
    -Stomping or Steps
    -Clapping or Slapping
