Oh my god!! it's hip hop!!

I love hip hop dancing!! Yes, I love it! Although I could not dance hip hop, I just love to watch the dance. The first I watched this dance was when I was in Form 5 in Ipoh. So happen at that time Digi was having its road show and there was this hip hop dance performance performed by a group of youngsters which the called themselves “The Shadow”. It was fun! Not only the dancers were having fun, we, people on the floor were also having fun and were very excited. I started to move according to the beat of the hip hop music. I can feel that my adrenaline was rising. It was nothing but fun! Since that day, I have been very interested in knowing what exactly hip hop is. I have surfed on the internet to know more of this dance. And finally, I get to know that hip hop dance refers to dance styles, mainly street dance styles, primarily danced to hip hop music or that have evolved as a part of the hip hop culture. Hip hop dance involved a lot of stunts acts, that’s what I think. Only after I have surfed the internet, I realized that those were not stunt acts but those were the dance styles. My interest into hip hop dance grows as my brother joined the hip hop dance class. I started to indulge myself more into the hip hop stuffs under the influence of my brother. I saw him dancing in the garage, the garden, his room and even in the living room! I was full of admiration towards him! It is great seeing him dancing hip hop. All the dance styles were absolutely amazing! As the days go by, hip hop evolved and grew further away from funk, it became slower, heavier and more aggressive. Hip hop is better known for its floor-oriented move movements. Some of the dancing styles are krumping, harlem shake, snap dance, clown walk, crip walk, Chicken Noodle Soup, grinding, Spongebob dance, toe wop and lots more! I never feel bored watching the hip hop dance. In fact, I always surfed on the youtube.com to watch the dance whenever I am free. Although I can not dance, I am just no the material for dancing, I love watching the dance very much. I am fully satisfied although I am just a viewer and this will not stop me from loving hip hop dance. Long live the hip hop!
