Urban dance styles explained
 
What is Street Dancing?
 
Street dance, also called vernacular dance[1] is an umbrella term, used to describe dance styles that evolved outside of dance studios in everyday spaces such as streets, school yards and nightclubs.

They are often improvisational and social in nature, encouraging interaction and contact with spectators and the other dancers. Some examples include house dance that originated in Chicago and tecktonik which originated in France. Street dance is also commonly used to identify the many hip-hop and funk dance styles that began appearing in the United States in the 1970s and are still alive and evolving within hip-hop culture today. These styles include breaking, popping, locking. All of these dances are popular as a form of physical exercise, an art form, and for competition. They are today practiced both at dance studios and other spaces

These days street dance is a fusion of all the urban dance styles popping, locking, breaking, commercial and krumping making it into an exciting physical form of dancing.

Street dance in the UK has become more commercial over the past few year what with the winning of Britains Got Talent by George Sampson and also the amazingly talented 'Diversity" dance crew. This exposure in the media has also been increased by the televisation of "American's Best Dance Crew" where dance crews all over the USA battle it out through a season for the title of Americans best dance Crew
