Street Dance x @dancersalleysydney: Waving Edition 🌊🔉👋 Introducing some of the awesome street dance styles and communities at Dancers Alley 💃🏻🕺 History/background: Waving is a street dance that originates in the US is defined by the transfer goes in, through and out of your body with the emphasis of muscle control. The idea of a wave pattern in dance has existed for a very long time manifesting in many cultural dances that predate Street Dance. However, in the same way that wave dances differ across cultures, Waving as Street Dance is unique through its History, Context and Culture. In Street Dance, wave patterns started to be most prominently adapted to Funk in the 60s where people used what we call the “tidal wave” as a social dance. In the 70s, waving evolved in California alongside popping in moves such as the “Centipede” (the first synchronised waves that appeared in routines). Waving continued to grow as a dance and among those who innovated this dance at that time are dancers such as Darryl Johnson aka King Cobra, King Python aka King Snake aka Pop n Taco, Mr Smooth, Darryl Stokes, Boardman, No Bone Tyrone, and Slick Dogg. There are many more dancers who are accredited for contributing to the evolution of Waving to what we see today such as JSmooth, Tempo and Funktion. Furthermore, while it is important to recognise the roots of this dance form from both a Street Dance perspective as well as the wider expression of wave patterns in other cultural dances; it is also important to recognise and respect the unique differences that set these dance forms apart from each other which will always be: History, Context and Culture.
