Punk Subculture - Dance

Dance

Two dance styles associated with punk are pogo dancing and moshing. Stage diving and crowd surfing were originally associated with protopunk bands such as The Stooges, and have appeared at punk, metal and rock concerts. Ska punk promoted an updated version of skanking. Hardcore dancing is a later development influenced by all of the above mentioned styles. Psychobillies prefer to "wreck", a form of slam dancing that involves people punching each other in the chest and arms as they move around the circle pit.

Famous quotes containing the word dance:

    Rejoice with a Mustang for it will dance down the highway and bump no one.
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

    If I’m on skates, I feel at home no matter what I’m doing. If they wanted me to sing and dance I think I could do it just because I was on skates. When I’m not on skates, though, I feel very strange.
    Dorothy Hamill (b. 1956)

    People come to see beauty, and I dance to give it to them.
    Judith Jamison (b. 1944)
