If you are comfortable showing off your moves on the dance floor, you may know what to do if or even a bit of moshing (狂舞)! But if they ask you to join them for a street dance, which moves would you make? Of course, you might be a little confused.The truth is, street dance is a mix of several forms of dance, coming from different periods of time and even different countries.
The name "street dance" is connected to those forms of dance which are popular in the streets, parks, clubs and alleyways (小巷) of cities like London and New York. But it covers everything from break dancing (霹雳舞) to body popping (震感舞), body locking (锁舞) and house dancing (浩室舞).
There are very few rules. Street dance is often improvised (即兴表演) and done among friends while listening to a mobile music player.Itis open to anyone of any age, anywhere and any time.
Because it is a social activity, it has provided many young people, especially those in poorer city areas with a strong gang (帮派) culture, helping these young people getting into trouble. For example, the street dance group—Diversity, was formed when a group of brothers and friends from East London and Essex got together. The group has achieved fame because of a popular television talent show—Britain's Got Talent. For others, the inspiration may be a local street-dance club led by a professional instructor (教练), or a local group of friends who get together just for fun.
