Points to remember
E

Street dance refers to dance styles that have evolved outside of dance studios.
It is performed in streets, dance parties, parks, school yards, or in any available space.
EP

It is often improvisational and social in nature, encouraging interaction and contact

with spectators and other dancers.

A full street dance is a collection of various similar dance moves and styles put
together into one practice and regarded as the same dance.
D

Hip-hop is a cultural movement best known for its impact on music in the
form of the musical genre of the same name. It has its origins in the Bronx, in New
York City, during the 1970s, mostly among African Americans and some influence of
Latin Americans. Hip-hop culture is composed of the pillars such as DJ-ing, rapping,
breakdancing, and graffiti art.

Hip-hop dance, on the other hand, refers to street dance styles primarily
performed to hip-hop music or that have evolved as part of hip-hop culture. Hip-hop
music incorporates a number of iconic elements, most notably DJing and rapping,
along with things like beat boxing, sampling, and juggling beats on turntables.

 STREET AND HIP-HOP DANCE STYLES
B-Boying-

B-boying or breaking, also called breakdancing, is a style of street dance and

the first hip-hop dance style that originated among Black and Puerto Rican youths in
New York City during the early 1970s. A practitioner of this dance is called a b-boy,
b-girl, or breaker. Although the term breakdance is frequently used to refer to the
dance, b-boying and breaking are the original terms.

Four Movements:
Toprock footwork-oriented steps performed while standing up
Downrock footwork performed with both hands and feet on the floor

PY
Freezes stylish poses done on your hands
comprise full-body spins and rotations that give the illusion
Power moves
of defying gravity

Popping

O
Popping was popularized by Samuel Boogaloo Sam Solomon and his crew the
Electric Boogaloos. It is based on the technique of quickly contracting and relaxing
muscles to cause a jerk in a dancer’s body.
C

Popping forces parts of your body outwards, similar to an explosion within
D
parts of your body. Popping also contracts muscles, but it is followed by relaxation that
gives it the jerking appearance of popping.
E

Locking
EP

Locking or campbellocking, was created by Don Campbellock Campbell in 1969

in Los Angeles, California. It was popularized by his crew, The Lockers. Locking can be
identified by its distinctive stops. It is usually performed by stopping the fast movement
that you are doing, locking your body into a position, holding it, and then continuing at
the same speed as before. In locking, dancers hold their positions longer. The lock is
D

the primary move used in locking. It is similar to a freeze or a sudden pause. A locker’s
dancing is characterized by frequently locking in place and after a brief freeze moving
again.

Krumping

Krumping is a form of dancing that originated in the African-American community

of South Central Los Angeles, California and is a relatively new form of the “Urban”
Black dance movement. It is free, expressive and highly energetic. Most people paint
their faces in different designs. Krumping is a dance style to release anger. It is reported
that gang riots in the United States decreased because of krumping style.

Tutting

It is a creative way of making geometric shapes forming right angle using your
body parts. The style was originally practiced by young funk dancers. It is derived from
the positions people were drawn in during the days of the Ancient Egyptians. It is the
positions seen in these portraits that have been adopted by dancers today. Tutting is
still a greatly respected move and King Tut aka Mark Benson is widely acclaimed for
pioneering the style.

Shuffling

The  Melbourne Shuffle  (also known as  Rocking  or simply  The Shuffle) is
a rave and club dance that originated in the late 1980s in the underground rave music

PY
scene in Melbourne, Australia. The basic movements of the dance are a fast heel-and-
toe action with a style suitable for various types of electronic music. Some variants
incorporate arm movements. People who dance the shuffle are often referred to as
rockers, due in part to the popularity of shuffling to rock music in the early 1990s.

O
Waacking C
Waacking” is an African American form of street dance originating from the
1970’s disco era of the underground club scenes in Los Angeles and New York City.
Waacking consists of stylized posing and fast synchronized arm movements to the
beat of the music. Today, waacking is a popular element of hip hop dance.

 The base of the pyramid includes activities that are easy, convenient and
accessible to everyone. These activities, part of our daily routines, when performed
habitually or daily for a minimum of 30 minutes, even 10 minutes at a time will provide
metabolic efficiency by increasing total energy expenditure. So if you are diabetic
or obese, with poor sugar control and have never engaged in any form of exercise
before, activities like walking, climbing the stairs, and doing household chores may be
a good start.

It is important to note that for beginners, the amount of cumulative activity time
is more important than the specific type and manner of activity. Aerobic exercises
like jogging, brisk walking, swimming, aerobic dancing, and recreational activities like
ballroom dancing, badminton, and tennis burn more calories per minute per body
weight and are advised for those who want to lose more weight. To get the most

PY
benefit from the activity, it has to be done 3-5 times a week for at least 30-45 minutes.
These activities will also improve your cardiovascular endurance.

Leisure activities like bowling and playing golf burn approximately 0.04-0.09
kcal/min/kg BW. Though these activities are enjoyable and are associated with energy

O
expenditure, they are not recommended as part of our daily activities. This is because
cardiovascular benefit is achieved only if we can sustain our heart rates at 60-75% of
our target heart rate.
C
Strengthening and flexibility exercises, on the other hand, are intended to
improve bone and muscle strength and improve resilience of our connective tissue.
Although you may do it every day, performing it 2-3 times per week may be enough to
D
provide you with its maximum benefits.

Activities that burn the least calories should be avoided. The top of the pyramid
E

refers to activities that are frequently performed by most children and adults who are
overweight. These activities are believed to be responsible for the progressive rise in
obesity and diabetes in the country.
EP

Regular activity is no doubt beneficial to everyone. No one is too old to enjoy

the benefits of regular physical activity.

To maintain health, one would need to burn 700-1000 kcal per week. For a 60
D

kg female walking briskly for 30 minutes (150 kcal) 5 days a week will burn 900 kcal.

To lose weight, one has to burn 2000-3000 kcal per week. A 75-kg male walking
briskly for 45 minutes (338 kcal) 6 days a week will burn 2,028 kcal and is expected
to lose 0.5 pound a week if he keeps his food intake within the recommended range.

The FILIPINO PYRAMID ACTIVITY GUIDE is intended to be a guide that

should help everyone select activity that best fits his lifestyle and health needs. Just
30 minutes of the different activities over the course of a day is healthy and rewarding!

Start getting your rewards, start your EXERCISE NOW!

 Points to remember…
Our lifestyle is the way we live. It is composed of a variety of elements and
habits: what we eat, what we drink, our level of exercise, how well we sleep, how
well we manage stress and adapt to stressful situations, our behaviour and how we
interact with people, not forgetting our sense of belonging and purpose in life. It is
also affected by how we think and how we see life in general and by our attitude and
the choices we make when confronted with the changes and challenges of life.

A balanced lifestyle is the way in which we live and reflects that the different
elements of our life are in the right amount and proportion. Adopting a balanced
lifestyle is of growing importance because it has immediate and long-term effects on
our health and well-being. This is confirmed by many recent studies, which clearly
show that conditions such as heart diseases, stroke, cancer, diabetes, as well as

PY
many other chronic diseases may be preventable and even reversible by changing
our diet and adopting new attitudes and lifestyle.

A balanced lifestyle will have positive effects on our longevity as well. In his
exceptional book, Defy Aging, Michael Brickey, (PhD) has reviewed and put together
the conclusions of thousands of scientific studies and references about longevity.

O
One of the important conclusions of this extensive review is this: “Researchers
estimate that 30% of longevity is due to heredity and that 70% is the consequence
of our beliefs, attitudes, coping skills and lifestyle”.
C
Adopting and maintaining a healthy and balanced lifestyle is our own
responsibility. By maintaining a balanced lifestyle, we are increasing our chances of
living a significantly longer, better, and happier life.
D
A balanced lifestyle is the cornerstone of your well-being, and it encompasses
elements such as developing and maintaining good physical health and fitness,
E

maintaining a good level of energy and vitality, having the ability to express your
creativity, enjoying emotional and psychological stability, entertaining harmonious
relationships, feeling and expressing your love toward people and life, acquiring
EP

effective stress management strategies and coping skills, achieving financial stability,
as well as developing a sense of purpose and meaning in life.

In order to be able to take meaningful actions and make effective changes

to your lifestyle and improve your health and well-being significantly, it may be very
D

useful to look at the different elements that define your lifestyle. This will allow you
to set pertinent and reasonable goals and adopt more effective strategies specific to
each element.

Lifestyle is often defined by the following six components: physical, mental,

emotional, social, financial and spiritual. These elements are all interrelated. We can
say that we enjoy a truly balanced lifestyle when we are balanced with respect to all
six components. Negligence or imbalance in any one of these affects all the others.
The good news is that improvement in one element will also have a positive effect
on all the others.

SUMMARY
EP

Sustaining fitness and wellness is important because it allows the person to

live life to the fullest. A fit individual who can function optimally is not prone to health
problems, is strong enough to face life challenges, and can adjust to different situations.
Fitness and wellness are sustained through practicing a healthy lifestyle. This includes
D

participating in physical activities, having proper eating habits, and enjoying leisure.

Street and hip-hop dances are good recreational activities that can sustain
fitness and wellness. Dancing as a lifetime habit will surely help in sustaining fitness.
But this should be combined with proper eating habits.
