"I think the dab came from soulja boy crank dat, after that was a lot of moves which came from songs like whip, nae nae, dougie, hit da quan, stanky leg, etc" "Now we know how the dab got its influence from the fila." Any ways these guys are the real deal, pay attention." "Yeah, you get the moves down, then make up your own variations using the "theme" of the move. "michaelusam1 What!? You don't know these guys? These guys are pioneers of Hip Hop dance!īuddha Stretch and Henry Link from Elite Force Crew :)" Can somebody please tell me the name of these two dancers?"

#Classic hip hop dance moves Patch#
The way you did the cabbage patch is what we called the reebok." "In the south we did the smurf, reebok and the cabbage patch differently. "so drill these until you can build off the steps and add your own original style to them right ?" Killin' it with the Reebok and The Prep is mind blowing to see in it's original pre Janet Jackson cheerleader routine form.
"You do know those guys are the creators of hiphop dance?" "he did the happy feet wrong,the happy feet was what the ronald mcdonald clown did back n the 80 movin your feet side by side but dope." "Fella's Say HOOOO! Ladies Say OUWWWW!! Nice Post Homiez. Hahah awesome ! some real swag up in here !" And the story of their creation isn't the same.=)" "I remember that at the SDK Link said that reebok is not Gucci, maybe I'm not right, but these steps (for me) look different. "Street Dance Kemp in CZ= Street Dance Camp in The Czech Republic, Yo and the 'Mike Tyson' move(which is not in this video but I dont mind mentioning it) is just a variation of a running man. Last week at the Street Dance Kemp in CZ Henry Link taught that the Reebok is actually the Gucci. "Everybody tells us smthing different.so confusing. But you know.if you think you know better." and I even asked him myself,just to be sure, and he made it clear. Well.Junior Boogie said,that Link told him that the reebok isnt the reebok, but its the gucci. "Fila is rambo.and Reebok is gucci.i think" "LOL the smurf is the most important basic step." And I thought the Fila and Reebok were switched. I used to do all of those except the Smurf. Here are some comments from this video's discussion thread (with numbers added for referencing purposes only) SHOWCASE VIDEO: Hip Hop Old School DictionaryĬheck out YouTube for more Hip Hop Dictionary dance videos. However, it seems to me that correct name of dance isn't as important as the skill, creativity, and flair that dancers demonstrate while performing that dance. And a contemporary dance may be given the name of an older dance even though it doesn't have all or any of the basic steps of that older dance. Also or the same basic steps (movements) for a specific Hip Hop dance may have a different name or names (within the same period of time, the same racial population within the same nation) depending on where a person lives.įurther complicating this is that it's possible that a specific old school (and new school?) Hip Hop dance may have a different name even within the same geographical location (city/state) in same period of time, and the same racial population within the same nation.Īlso, a specific old school dance may be renamed by people in other decades before or after it becomes popular at a certain time.

Thanks to the unknown creators of these old school dances, and thanks to Buddha Stretch and Henry Link for demonstrating these dances.
