It’s time for some dance floor action with these dance moves that’ll sweep the tecktonikers of the floor: the Melbourne Shuffle and the Kuduro.
Despite common thought, the Melbourne shuffle isn’t a new variation that results from jump style or tecktonik. It had been invented in the underground scene of indeed Merlbourne somewhere in the late 80s. It certaintly is more interesting to watch than jump style: it involves more sliding movements and it can be danced on various genres of electronic music.
The late 80s seemed to be very inspiring for kids with itchy legs. Kuduro, to name just one of those other dance styles that have sprung up. It’s a bubbly dance from Angola that via the suburbs of Lisbon found its way to Europe. It incorporates the foot movements that can be seen in The Melbourne Shuffle and the 90s jump styles, but the more R’nB/Hip-hop inspired freestyle dancing gives it its fluency.
Don’t be shy and get shaking!

I suggest a battle at our next party.
Agreed. Only with better music because the music to all these kind of dancegenres is horrible.
