How to Personalize Popping

Hello ladies and gentlemen I'm Jon Coker, better known on the stage as Flow Motion and I'm representing Animotion Entertainment. On behalf of Expert Village I'm here to show you the basics of a dance style call Popping. Alright, that's the basics of Popping right there. And, once you learn, like you just look at certain people and you develop a style and you start to innovate your own moves and everything like that. Then that's when you go out there and you can just learn your own freestyle. Take it from what I'm teaching you right here, right here, throw in some waves, you know. You start to learn how to create your own style and start to put your own flavor on it. The thing about the Electric Boogaloos, they actually use to watch old men, they say that's where they got their inspiration from. That's what I'm saying, you're never too old to Pop, you're never too young to Pop. If you're old enough to flex your muscles then you're old enough to do this. Alright? That's where they get this move from, this little thing right here, that's where they get that from. A lot of that is from watching these old men walking around with their canes and everything; they said they use to make fun of them when they were back in the day. I wasn't suppose to tell them that, too late. So that's where you get that from. So, if you want to, we're going to do it one more time, and we're going to wrap it up from there. So, last time. Get your mom and dad in the room, kids, grandparents, everybody. Get the dog in here, the dog can pop too. Alright ready? Six, five, six, seven, eight. One, two. One, two. One, two. One, two. One, two. One, two. One, two. One, two. One, two. One, two. One, two. One, two. One, two. One, two. Add that chest pop at the end.
