Kids Freestyle Krumping

It's apparent that the class as a whole is very fond of krumping, clowning, and break dancing. This afternoon I happened to stumble upon a video that shows young boys krumping and I just had to share it with you! I know we discussed that krumping is more of a dance battle, but these three young boys seem to be working with each other while battling at the same time by showcasing their moves one by one. Enjoy this video!

    That video was awesome! I love seeing younger kids krump- it amazes me the way they can move at such an early age. Also I thought their style was very unique- it seemed almost like "clean cut krumping". The greatest thing about this style of dance is that it can be individualized and people can really make it their own. That's what makes it a great way to express your emotions and who you are, which coincides with what the dancers were saying in Rize- that krumping is a way of life. Almost like free therapy!

    I loved this as well! Brittany, I totally agree with you: it is amazing that these young guys can move their bodies like that. And Lauren, I see the battle/working together aspect that you are talking about. Although each boy has his own flare as he dances, I love the transitioning from one dancer to another...almost makes it seem more like a "showcase" than a battle. Great video!

    I really enjoyed this too! I noticed what Brittany did as well. Each of these three dancers have their own unique style they bring to participating in the dance, that adds to the dance. I cannot believe kids are this talented and are committed to learning something so difficult. Their interactions with each other changes the way the dance is done, and I enjoyed this alteration on krumping.

    I think the styles of this type of dance are definitely what makes it so unique. It absolutely amazes me that at such young ages children are able to develop such personalities in their dance moves. I really enjoyed this video!
