Fantastic dancing routine to the ‘Stronger’ at http://www.humantank1.me.uk/Dance2
First Learn Dance secret is: You must do all the training you can to be the best dancer you can be, experience of dance is useful, you can better visualize the image you are going to create.
On to their latest Video web page on the website of Dancing, videos & stuff, they have a short video of ‘Bognor RDM 16’. The two dancers in the video pop & lock very well to the beat and rhythm of ‘Stronger’.
They have other videos of earlier dances are there too, so you can see progress as they dance through a half year period if you follow from RDM 1 to RDM 16.
I have it on good authority that Popping is a popular continuous rhythmic dance, and Popping came from Locking which came from Robotics. An article quote, some one saw several people doing a robot dance or robotics in a nightclub and it was good & they nearly joined in. Which was a pity but they came to a conclusion that the people were good at Robotics and made it fashionable to do if done properly, and they would have fitted in with these Robot dancers.
Some styles used in the video is Locking, Popping, Rocking and a few other styles I spotted during the dance video routine. And there is Boogaloo, which is a style that helps a dancer going from waves to locking and popping Electro Boogaloo apparently.
Locking is held for as long a pause as is possible, about half a beat or so, especially if you are doing Poplocking.
Articles on its website such as one that states popping is a quick flex or constriction of the muscles and then an instant relaxing almost immediately on the beat rather than locking.
With their own style of footwork they call cap rock, it certainly looks good and it gets a crowd reaction when they dance.
It also has quite a collection of articles about dancing in the 80’s and again in the 90’s which if I am right was when street dancing was popular to Electro music of that time.
At the end of the year 2008 with 6 months of dancing behind them they have finally created a dance video that crowns the moment, which is a moment to be proud of in my opinion.
