Question: What's the name of a hiphop/break dance where two dancers take turns insulting each other!? Is there a website!?
Ok, so what I am trying to explain is this type of dance where two people (usually males) that are usually surrounded by other people in a circle, and they take turns doing some move to the other dancer to insult them!. The music that is playing has some type of catchy beat that could be found in either rap or techno!. The dancers do not talk!. For example, person #1 will dance up to person #2, and while keeping with the beat, quickly take their shirt and put it over their head!. Then dancer #1 gives dancer #2 a chance to respond, and dancer #2 might go up to dancer #1 and start waving their hand in front of their own face as if their dancer #1's breath smells, and then dancer #2 starts motioning like their brushing teeth!. This goes back and forth until one of the dancers either can't come up with anything in response, fails to convey an insult, or the fast beat changes to something else

I've only seen this a few times, not in about 5 years or so, but it's very entertaining to watch!. Can't find any YouTube videos of it because I don't know what it's called!. Any help would be much appreciated, thanks!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

If you are that deperate to see it, watch bring it on all or nothing!! Www@QuestionHome@Com

What you're describing is called a "battle" performed by b-boys and/or b-girls and it takes place in a breaking circle!. Just type that in along with the words "hip hop", "breaking" or "dance" and I'm sure you'll get tons of videos!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
