Hip hop dance hip hop dance
Its movements are composed of various combinations of walking, running and jumping, which are varied. It is made up of joints such as head, neck, shoulders, upper limbs and trunk through flexion and extension, rotation, rotation, sparkling and wave-like twisting. Every movement has its specific fitness effect, which not only pays attention to the coordination between upper and lower limbs, abdomen and back, head and trunk, but also pays attention to the independent movement of each part. Therefore, street dance not only has the functions of improving heart and lung function, reducing fat, enhancing muscle elasticity and enhancing ligament flexibility, but also has the functions of coordinating muscle groups in various parts of the human body, shaping beautiful posture, improving human coordination ability and cultivating aesthetic feeling.
Hip-hop is a street culture developed by African-Americans, and it is a kind of exercise to vent emotions. It is characterized by strong explosive force, and the movements of limbs are exaggerated compared with other dances.

At the same time, street dance also has the function of slimming, because street dance is a low-intensity aerobic exercise, and the function of consuming whole body fat is quite strong in an hour's exercise. In addition, street dance is a small muscle exercise. Regular practice can increase the coordination of your whole body and make your body proportion more standard.
Hip-hop-the evolution of hip-hop
According to the characteristics of the times, hip-hop can be divided into two categories: old school and new school. The former is a hip-hop style in the 1980s, and the latter is produced in the 1990s, which has undergone considerable changes in music and movements.
old-fashioned
Old-school music has a very fast beat to match the unconventional movements, and then with the evolution of hip-hop music, the rhythm of hip-hop slows down, and the unconventional movements are not suitable. Because if you do something like car or footwork in this slow hip-hop music, you will not feel explosive at all, and even lose your sense of dance. At this time, the dance of the old school and the new school began to separate, which was about 1986.
The dance steps of the early new school are very simple, such as the familiar "running man", which can be seen in the music videos of MC Hammer and Babby Brown. This hot street dance is also called fashionable dance. But from the present point of view, these hip-hop dances, which were all the rage during the period of MC Hammer and Babby Brown, have gradually become old-fashioned.
The emergence of new schools
1At the beginning of 992, a black dance group called Mop Top (composed of Henry Link, Songjie and Foshen) developed a new style of street dance, an "original street dance". Unlike the big movements and large-scale movements in the period of MC Hammer and Babby Brown, there is no gymnastics-like movement in break dancing. Its unique style is to pay attention to the coordination of the body (we call it rhythm), pay attention to the rhythm of the upper body, and add a lot of hand movements, instead of paying attention to the big movements and footwork movements like the old hip-hop. Subsequently, Michael Jackson's "The Last Time" MTV used Henry's new style dance, which immediately set off a wave. Later, Mary Kelly's dream girl song MTV used a richer new school dance, mixing locking, Poping and Wave. At that time, it was difficult for people to determine what kind of dance it was, but it was a very important section in the history of the development of new hip-hop and the origin of the new school's popularity all over the world.
The mature stage of the new school
Hip-hop in the new school is a mixture of different types of dances, including hip-hop or R&; This song shows this. This is the early form of the new school. Henry and others simplified many Locking movements, used standard hip-hop rhythm to express Poping and locking, and sometimes added Wave to the dance. Simply put, it is to interpret these old dance steps with new feelings. Later, Henry worked as a dance director in Mary Kelly's songs Fantasy and Later Sweetheart. Hip-Hop has begun to mature in the popular female hip-hop group TLC's song Creep and the movie MIB's MTV.
Now the new school street dance
When this new Hip-Hop became popular in Japan, the Japanese developed another dance style of their own, that is, dancing the new Hip-Hop with old-school music. The new school originally used a new musical style to express the old dance, but now it has become an old musical style to interpret the new dance. In terms of movement, the recent new Hip-Hop has changed a lot, with severe body distortion and no so-called rules in dance.
