STREET DANCE (Hip-Hop Dance)

Dance
Street Dance is one of the newest dance genres in the 20 th century that
immensely attracts the new generation particularly youth. It came fron the African-
American hip-hop culture and tremendously spread worldwide.
What is Hip-Hop?
The word hip-hop was derived from the word “hep”, an African-American
vernacular English language since 1904 which means “current”. It was apparently
invented by a New York rapper Afrika Bambaataa, (real name is Kevin Donovan), who
was dubbed as the Grandfather of Hip-hop. The dancing style of Hip-Hop developed from
the music style that was first introduced during the 1970s in New York City among
young Hispanic and African-American communities and was made popular in the 1980s
by media’s exposure of several hip-hop dance groups in America.
Hip-Hop culture is from African-American group of people who were looking for a
creative outlet to vent their frustrations and dissapointments with society (Dimalanta,
2006). It started with funky beats reverberating at house or basement parties and the
streets of New York.
The word street dance arrived in the Philippines from the United States during the
1980s but only gained unparalleled popularity during the 1990s. According to Dimalanta
(2006), the word street dance is a “Filipinized version of hip-hop dance that was
specifically used by Filipino dancers.
There are various street dance battles held locally across the country as well as
hip-hop dance competitions internationally. The first Philippine Team who won the World
Hip Hop Dance Championships is the Philippine All Stars. One of the pioneers of street
dance in the Philippines is Jungee Marcelo. Marcelo started the first formal street dance
class in the Philippines after arriving from US in 1991. After almost 11 years of living in a
community dominated by African-Americans in Los Angeles, he brought with him his
knowledge of urban dance in the country.
