The main part.

The definition of street dance.

Street dance is an umbrella term used to describe dance styles that evolved outside of dance studios in any available open space such as streets, parks, school yards, raves, and nightclubs. They are often improvisational and social in nature encouraging interaction and contact with spectators and the other dancers. These dances generally evolve out of urban and suburban spaces in some form of underground culture or region; they are a part of the vernacular culture of that geographical area (as if they were folk dances; although since the advent of the internet, the dances seem to be shared amongst people with the same musical interest worldwide). Therefore, street dance refers to modern folk dance with the term 'street' being more accurate since much of the modern world is now urbanized. Some examples of street dance include B-boying, more commonly known as breakdancing, which originated in New York City, Melbourne Shuffle which originated in Melbourne, Australia and Tecktonik which originated in Paris, France.

Street dancing is an excellent outdoor activity to perform with a group of friends or with onlookers and passersby who wish to join in. The great thing about street dancing is that you needn’t be a skillful dancer; just about any form of dancing or vibrant music is all that’s required to have a good time. Depending on the type of music played, or form of dance, street dancing can include a variety of moves.
