I once busted moves out by the pool at the El capitan to try an impress some females from Tecate...
What woman wouldn't be impressed by that. if not even just a little scared. If you could pull moves off like that on cardboard...just think of what
you could accomplish in bed.
Like I said she may be a little scared when you start busting back flips
Love to watch breaking, popping, locking and crumping. Very American, very very original, exceptionally innovative, and refreshingly energetic.
Absolutely legitimate forms of dancing. I was a gymnast for 9 years and I especially appreciate it when some tumbling, free-x, and ballet is
incorporated in the breaking (love the Thomas Flare).
TV shows like 'Love to Dance' and 'So You Think You Can Dance' give those forms of dance due consideration and respect and the general public loves
it.
Hey Ken! Wow! How I remember. Best era, best dance, best music, I mean...Chaka
Kahn...Ken...you gotta back offa her...she mine!...always was...still is...mo fatta now...tha's OK! When she look down at me from the stage and smile
and sing Ooo Babybabybabybaby, I followed her to the Green Room in my dreams and never came back...Uhhhhh!
great thread and oh yeah...real baja related!!!
Once a few years back I was at Carnival in Bahia Tortugas and there was the regular entertainment program that gets a bit tedious after seeing
hundreds of fokloric dance numbers...dont get me wrong, I love fokloric dance...I'm just sayin...
anyway...all of a sudden out of the audience, wings etc come these outrageous kids decked out in street, cholo clothes and the music comes on and they
performed incredibly complex break dancing routines...some of the best I'd seen..what an enormous and wonderful surprise!!! I think they were from La
Paz and it was just fantastic and the crowd loved it too!!!
kinda cool to see some nomads into breakin...ya baby.
Well, I suppose this could have been called 'break-dancing' literally.
Anyway, lots of great moves going on at Humphrey's in Shelter Island on this night..whew. Lots of 'spinning', too...pretty sure I ended up on the
floor 'twice', but then I was seeing double.
The neck brace is already off, and I am fairly sure I will be able to walk normally again by 2013.

Kelly (Lucinda Dickey), a struggling jazz dancer, teams up with two talented break-dancers (Adolfo Quinones and Michael Chambers) in an attempt to win
a big-time street-dancing competition. As Kelly becomes a break-dancing sensation, she must first overcome the disapproval of her formal dance
instructor (Ben Lokey). The music score features the hits "Breakin' ... There's No Stoppin' Us" and "Freakshow on the Dance Floor."
