See you down at Jakes Rastaurant.

Didn't seem very instructional, at that pace.

I...uh...what the hell, Japan?

Oh well, as long as they're havin' fun, I guess.

Actually bboying is a global style of dance now.... There's no predominant race that dominates the dance.

White black asian its all about the dance.

Although I would say that Japan and Korea are teamwise better because they work so much better as a group than as individuals.

EXPRESSION Crew and Gamblers Crew all the way.

ummm yeah, this link makes it on the video tab but not one video of classic James Brown?

pvd021, is "white black asian" some sort of amalgamation of races? Like, a mulato father and Japanese mother? Just curious.

/teamwise? What are you, a ~~cheerleader~~ dance team member?

Just some background. That style of Locking is TonyGoGo style. TonyGoGo moved to Japan in the early 90s and is still living over there to this day.

The dance was created by Don "Campbellock" Campbell in 1968-69. Not Fred "Rerun" Berry as everyone thinks. In the original group The Lockers.. Fred's original dance name was "Penguin". He would wear tuxedo w/tails and a top hat. Imitating the Penguin from Batman.

Currently in the world the top four spots go to Japan, France, Korea, and lastly the US. Sad since it is our dance. Of course this is debatable but in open battle competitions the US never really places anymore.
