Folk dances has a great role especially to the people who are living in a remote provinces or locality, in the sense that, dance will serve as mirror that tells the nature of the people living in that particular place such as; occupation, religion, culture, tradition, customs and belief. it is significant to have a dance that represents lifestyle, behavior and background so that this would be a great help for them to be recognized and be part of the dance history.

Breakdancing seems so different from all other kinds of dancing that the first question people ask when they see it is: "Where did these kids learn to dance like that?" To many people, this dance seems to have come out of nowhere. But like everything else, Breakdance did come from somewhere, something and someone. In the case of Breakdancing, that someone is the great superstar, James Brown, and the something is the dance, the Good Foot. In 1969, when James Brown was getting down with his big hit "Get on the Good Foot" the Hustle was the big dance style of the day. If you've ever seen James Brown live in concert or on TV, then you know he can really get down. And when he preformed his hit, he did the kind of dance you'd expect James Brown to do. High Energy. This almost acrobatic dance was appropriately enough known as the lot of kids around New York City.

By the time the Good Foot became the new dance style, the tradition of dance battle was well established. Dancers would gather at places like Harlem World on 116th Street in Harlem and Battle-dancewise. Battles are covered in more detail in the section on battles, challanges, and contests, but the important thing as fas as the history of Breakdancing is concerned is that Breakdancing was particularly well-suited for competition. And not only was the Good Foot well- suited for dance battles, it appealed to certain young men who were very athletic.

The Good Foot, which was soon to be called B-Boy and shortly after that Breakdancing, or Breaking, was very different from the Breaking we see today. In some ways it was simpler. There were no Headspind. No Windmill. No Handglides or Backspins. It was what is now called old-style Breaking. Old-Style Breaking consisted only of floor work, or Floor Rock, and in a way it was more complex than modern Breaking. There may be some small variations on the Headspin and a Backspin, but basically, a Headspin is a head spin and a Backspin is a back spin. But Floor Rock can involve some extremely complicated leg moves, and it is done very fast. And it did not take long before where were a lot of Breakdancing battles happening.

Among those for whom old-style Breaking was especially popular were many of the youths and street gangs that roamed the South Bronx. And it was in those streets that Breakdancing really started. Often, the best Breakers in opposing gangs would battle dance wise instead of fighting. They would battle over turf. Or because someone stepped on someone else's shoes. They might battle prove that their gang was better than the other gang. Sometimes they would make a contract that the loser would not go around to the winner's neighborhood anymore. Sometimes they battled just to gain each other's respect. Unfortunately, these Breaking battles did not always stop fight. In fact, they often would cause a fight, since dancers would sometimes get physical when they couldn't win dance wise. No one likes to lose. But today Breaking battles have, to a large extent, replaced fighting in the Bronx.

In this way Breakdancing crews-groups of dancers who practice and perform together-were formed. And soon formal crews organized, who not only practiced and preformed together, but who also developed their own dance routines. Some of these crews became very dedicated to their dancing, and since they had nothing better to do, would spend hours a day practicing, developing more and more complex moves, improving their form, and increasing their speed. And then Afrika Bambaataa came along. Bambaataa is the legendary grand master D.J. who is the individual most responsible for the successful growth of Breakdancing. He is a record producer and member of the Soul Sonic Force, who's "Looking For The Perfect Beat" was chosen as the No.4 best single in the 1983 Jazz and pop Critics' Poll. Afrika Bambaataa is also the leader of the Zulu Nation in the Bronx.

In 1969, Afrika Bambaataa saw Breakdancing as more than just dancing. He saw it as a way to achieve something. He saw the potential of Breakdancing, and encouraged the dancers to keep at it. To work hard, and to believe that if they stuck with it, something good would come of it. Bambaataa then started one of the first Breakdance crews, the Zulu Kings. The Zulu Kings won a lot of battles and talent shows and preformed in various clubs in New York. At the same time they won a lot of adherents for the Zulu Nation.

Old-style Breaking remained popular until about 1977, when the Freak took over, based on the hit record "Freak Out" by the Shieks. Then around 1979 and early 1980 a new Breakdance crew was organized-Rock Steady Crew. Even though Rock Steady Crew was especially talented, a lot of people put them down being old-fashioned. But Bambataa encouraged them. He told them that if they stuck with it, something good would happen. He took them on, and soon they were performing at the Mudd Club, the Ritz, and other Punk rock clubs around New York. When Rock Steady performed for Malcom McLaren and Bow Wow Wow at the Ritz people started taking them seriously. Breakdancing Was In Again.

But the new-style Breaking was different from the old. Rock Steady added a lot of acrobatic moves. Breaking now included not only Floor Rock but Headspins, Backspins, Handglides, and Windmills. In 1981, Charles Ahearn made his Hip-Hop movie, Wild Style, a raw vision of rap singing, graffiti, scratching, and Breakdancing in the Bronx. Ahearn called on Rock Steady to do the Breaking and Rock Steady became the preeminent Breakdance crew and new-style Breaking became even more popular. When the spring of 1982 rolled around the Roxy was a well-established New York roller-skating rink. But the popularity of roller skating quickly began to fade, and in June of '82, Pat Fuji turned the Roxy into a dance club on Thursday, Friday, and Saturday night. The Roxy quickly became the Hip Hop center. It was here that rappers, D.J.'s, and Breakdancers would perform and hang out.

If you wanted to discover a Breakdancer for your show or video, you would come to the Roxy. Or if you just wanted to watch or learn some new moves, you would come to the Roxy. And the Roxy started to sponsor Breakdance contests, which would help the winners get more recognition. In June, 1983, Pat Fuji hired professional Jazz dancer Rosanne Hoare to run the Street Arts Consortium, whish was a house Breakdancing, rapping, and graffiti art. Rosy was going to officially establish a home for Hip Hop Culture. While the Street Art Consorium never really happened as envisioned, Rosy did provide a home for Breakdancers. She not only provided a place where they could feel at home, but she worked with them as a choreographer, helping to extend their dance possibilities. She also helped many dancer find commercial and performing dance work. Most importantly, Rosy was-and is-always there as a friend whom they can count on. She herself has taken up Breakdancing.

A guy at my dads work lost 15 pounds in 3 months from DDR. It probably depends on how long you do it a day and how many days. It also depends on your body type

StudioAustin: Actually you can lose 90 pounds in a month! But its like Dancergirl11 said. It all depends on how long you do it and how much movement you produce as well. Other than that you can consider DDR a working out game.

Smezz: I use to play for 2 to 3 hours a night. Within 2 months, I was down two pant sizes. You can lose weight playing Dance Dance Revolution, it all just depends on what you are willing to put into it. You build up the stamina as you go to last longer. It's great for losing weight while having fun. Not sure about the 90 pounds, but definitely quite a few, if you are going to spend a decent amount of time using it.

"Street dance" in formal dance terminology refers to the dances that evolved in urban areas. Towards the end of the "industrial revolution", the world became urbanized and dance professionals needed to distinguish the dances from performance dances (such as Ballet) and tribal/folk dance (Irish jig / African imported rhythm dance), so the term "street. dance" was coined. Dances such as the clog evolved in industrial urban environments, such as the cotton mill factories in Lancashire (UK), whereby the local workers would mimic the machine's rhythm. The clog was also largely danced in actual streets as part of parades, etc. The dance was largely similar to Irish step dancing, i.e. river dance and jigging. When the clog arrived in America, it was welcomed due to its similarity to the folk dances already brought over by the Irish, Spanish and African slaves. In Peru, a similar dance had already been born, named Zapateo. Black Americans especially, would mix clogging, tribal footwork and zapateo together to make the "Tap dance", etc. Tap dance lead to the later birth of many jazz, line, swing and funk dances. Almost all of Afro-American dances were street dances, no doubt due to the fact the black community were living in mostly urban environments. White people tended to abandon street dance for commercial dances invented purely for Pop Music tracks, ballet or just were too busy to dance at all. However, eventually white people began to tolerate black people more, the result was the "rock n roll" music genre and its dance scene. When funk was popular in America, small venues were set up for people to dance in. People would MASH up fad dance with accidental movements to make their own moves. This lead to Locking, Popping, Hustle, Waacking and the Oakland Boogaloo. Northern soul was imported into the UK at the time, leading to its fans producing the first real footwork based street dance, the "Northern Soul dance". Northern Soul dance eventually found itself in America. People would dance it to funk music in clubs and discos. In the Bronx of New York, DJs were using dub techniques to mix music. As soon as DJs worked out the floorworkers preferred dancing to break beats, they started looping them. Northern Soul dance was renamed as 'break dance', the music made by looping samples on turntables was eventually called 'hip hop'. Hip hop music eventually saw the introduction of MCing and rapping. As rap music, hip hop became popular, and like house, it spawned many street dances. In hip hop culture, people were using street dance to prove ghetto territory. Hip hop thus became a highly competition-proud community. House, trance and rave street dance were similar, except people were dancing for fun rather than this.

Here are a couple cute ways to ask a guy to a valentines dance, usually Sweethearts, or something like that, I will use it as an example.

1. You can buy a stuffed monkey with bananas and write "I'd go bananas if you went to sweethearts with me." Then write your name on a piece of paper and hide it in the bananas.

2. You can get a big poster and as many of those little boxes of valentine candies as you have letters of your name and then you can put a letter under each box and tape them on to the poster then write a cute message.

3. If you want to be creative and spend some time on this, you can make a layered cake, frost it white, then laminate your name, and put it between the layers, and then on the top in red frosting and write "Would you be a sweetheart and go with me?"

There are some ideas.

The Natural High Van was built by Lester"Smitty"Smith Jr. as a tribute to The Commodores. It is named after their album "Natural High" It started off as a 1974 Chevy Cargo van and carried a value of $1.7mil. It was featured in many of the custom van, truck, and motorhome magazines in the 70's & 80's. Many of it's features were so far ahead of it's time and enovated many products used in motorhomes, & yachts today. It was used in The Natural High Entertainment Group Inc. shows to help raise funds for community and charity events as well as parades in S. Calif. In their shows the Natural High Puppets performed out of the windows and doors of the van and The Natural High Group performed around it. There is more information at www.osmitty.com.
