Hey guys! Luke Lasam here aka Funky Luke, inspired to share my remarkable discoveries and realizations about dance. I will be posting things about my journey to self discovering this craft and the knowledge shared to me by people who are helping me along the way. I do not in any way proclaim I am great in dance, in fact as my mentor would say, "Always be a student." The sole reason of this blog is to share the things I've learned. Feel free to comment or correct me, it's all good! Peace!

Five Things on Freestyle: Vocabulary (Old School Hiphop)

In connection with the "Five Things on Freestyle" by Buddha Stretch, I am determined to share what I have learned from the Dance Dictionary. I've seen some of these steps in movies before when I was younger. I just didn't know then that they had names, and they actually are part of the vocabulary of Hiphop (lol)!

More than just a type of dance, hiphop is a culture. Without knowledge of the foundations and vocabularies, one can NOT claim that he or she is dancing hiphop. So I hope this can help you on your journey to real hiphop. Peace!
