I didn't think I was going to like this one when it started, but... some amazing jittery ankle stuff, and love the sense of fun, and such great stuff going on around him too

Loose-limbed perfection

Disappointed that no one fell in the canal while navigating around him

Street Player havent posted a new video for a year - really hope they come back. I think its the project of one particular choreographer/dance teacher? i think i read that, but forget now...love the looseness and improv in their videos

Innit!

It was heavy. Looking back it was one of the last really big dub dances in london. There is a longer vid, the sound is about a minute out of sync but it doesn't really matter

I'd love to go to something likea this. I'm gonna give a dub night a go!

I went to a Jah Shaka dance that was quite close to this vibe recently! They are very rare now tho, all the venues are shut (in london anyway)

He plays Bristol every now and again and in fact the last dub night I went to he played-this was about 15 years ago. The dub nights on Bristol are not very diverse.
Give me a shout if one comes up in London though

Next one is the carnival weekend saturday in august. Honestly its not quite the same as that vid as it is in a club so theres not as much space, but it is a close as you can get that still happens to my knowledge... just make sure to stay for the last hour or so

Nice thread. Love dancing, watching or doing. The Lindy hop video posted earlier is one of my favourites. Watched loads of Hip hop and b-boy videos Sadly the clip below is probably what I would look like if I tried any of the moves.

 

[Anju]

Another favourite. Love the way you can see so many different parts of the music in her moves.

 

[Anju]

Managed to find this again. It sort of ruined my love of b-boy/girl culture as most of their moves seem to have been stolen from these dancers.

A whole load of people dancing and gurning. Dancing starts about 20 seconds in.

I loved these two scenes from Gaspar Noé's film, Climax.
Best if you watch the whole film though.

Longboard dancing popped up on my Facebook feed. Never heard of or seen it before. Find this little clip really relaxing.

Nooooo, it's best to stop as soon as the dancing stops and leaving it right there!

check at 30 mins 30

Same here, can remember where and when I heard a song 30 years ago but if a TV ad break is longer than a minute I can't remember what I was watching.

I'm struggling to "get" this style of dancing - even more so with the Salsa I tried years ago - I found it a bit incongruous the way they fetishised hip-wiggling while not actually being in Cuba ....

 

[gentlegreen]

Was shown this one yesterday.
