    1. what is streetdance?
    an informal style of dance involving a variety of moves, which is popular with
    young people
    and often developed in public spaces such as streets, clubs, playgrounds, etc.
    also informally referred to as street, is an umbrella term which
    encompasses a range of dance styles characterised by descriptions such as hip hop,
    funk and breakdancing. Its eclectic nature has spawned a whole new street dance
    lexicon, including terms such as popping, locking, waving and krumping.

    Street dance, also more formally described as vernacular dance, originated in New
    York
    in the 1970s.Evolving on the streets of Manhattan and the Bronx,it was developed
    as an improvised, social dance form, reacting against traditional, high-art dance
    styles.
    Popular with African-Americans and Puerto-Ricans,treet dance was used as an
    expression of
    resistance and cultural identity outside of the mainstream.
    The energetic nature of street dance makes it popular with young people
    on a variety of levels, both as an art form, a competitive activity or for physical
    exercise.
    Some UK secondary schools are therefore beginning to introduce
    street dance as a form of physical education.
