Middle School Hiphop - New Jack Swing
August 13th 2006 23:05
I'm trying to avoid posting up random Youtube clips because everybody's doing it now and its getting boring, unless there's a story behind it or something, even better if it involves the poster to personalise it a bit more. I can stick up random videos showing different styles, great routines and stuff but that gets repetitive and boring. So...
I'm posting up a video of the only time I've ever been filmed doing a dance class. A few weeks ago my friend Jasey and I were the only students in Masaki's Hiphop class at Dancekool (Parramatta). Jasey decided he wanted to learn some middle school, a.k.a "New Jack Swing", and while I don't advise anyone to dance at least an hour after they just ate a meal, I ignore this advice and bear the indigestion and painful bowel movements after.
This time though, the music of the New Jack era (think late 80s to mid 90s), of Boyz II Men's "Motownphilly", House of Pain's "Jump Around", Kriss Kross' "Jump" and Bell Biv Devoe's "Poison" as my particular favourites, just taunted me with its highly energetic double-beat counts and big, bouncy moves.
So here is the routine of said dance class, to give an idea of this middle school style.
Masaki teaches Hiphop at Dancekool (Parramatta, City areas), Dance Central, and through D2MG at UNSW.
