Welcome to the section on one
of the more recognized forms of dancing, Poppin' and
Lockin'. Actually, Both Popping and Locking are separate
dance styles, but most of the time they are used
together. Popping consists of various movements of the
body, mostly the arms, in fluid or robotic motions
according to the beat and rythm of the music. Locking
consists of a system of points and, obviously, locks,
which are stop movments were a persons arms stop at
certain points. Pop-Lockin' is a form that has been used
sinced the late 70s/early 80s by many b-boys. Such as
Boogaloo Shrimp from the 80's movie "Breakin'"
and the infamous Mr. Wiggles of New York's Rocksteady
Crew. This style was more of a precursor to breakin and
all of the latest dance styles.
