Question

hi! ive always wanted to dance hip hop but theres a majorr problem!! my parents dont really like the music or the moves..basically, everything about it!! so i was wondering if i cud just like learn kinda *secretly * online or if there are any moves that are simple?? i always feel so awkward and left out at dances!! HELP!!!

Answer 1

Just go on the dance floor and makeup your own moves...thats what hip hop dancing looks like...or better yet just pour some ants down your back and flail around the dance floor...or if all else fails just do this...http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gx-NLPH8JeM

Answer 2

Hip-Hop dance is mostly about footwork and hip movement.

Crip Walk
Heel Toe
Walk It Out
Snap
Harlem Shake
Chicken Noodle Soup
Pop-Lock
(Toe) Wop
Snake
Matrix

those are specific moves/dances. Like i said its ALL about the footwork!!! Bending and twisting ur feet, sliding, twirls, drops, etc. it doesnt come so easy. U gotta have rythm, the will, and watch videos i guess lol. It all comes from other dances sooo.....if u can dance anything else...try 2 incorporate those styles in it.

Answer 3

first of all, I love hip hop..and have danced with many people from around the country..including the amount boys who have danced in movies,with little jo jo, and coregraphed mtv music awards as well as otehr poeple. First of all hip hop..is not shaking your *** half naked on stage..hip hop is a way of life. I dance at a christian studio..we teach real hip hop..breaking,popping,clowning,crumping..we dance to christian music..which talks about things other then sex and drugs..don't let the christian part through you off..it's still good music..theres really no diffrence. look for a christian studio..or learn off line and get a group togther and battle...live hip-hop..breathe it..

Answer 4

Just follow your heart, with what u want 2 do, and if you want 3 b the best make up ur own dance moves. Dance like your telling a story.

Answer 5

That is a problem.

My suggestion to you would be maybe think about taking jazz class instead. I think jazz is not as suggestive or seductive as hip hop seems. I struggled between which one to take and I chose jazz. I love it. Like I said, it's still a little showy without going to far and you could definetly use it at dances.

Just a thought.

there are many ways to do hip-hop..nothing should be wrong with the music, it's just as faster tempo. as for your dancing, just put more rythm(or your own twist) in the movements and they won't look bad.
