  • The jacking and footwork elements of house dance originated in Chicago but were further developed and embellished in New York. ... But it was in New York that the third element, lofting, was added. Lofting refers to the floor work, the dance's acrobatic movements.

    It's true the circle is a blessing and a curse. Great points were brought out about this.

    In the beginning, there was no circle. It was packed. You found your space and did your thing. Now if your thing was interesting, attractive , people would begin to coalesce around you. Not to watch you , but to dance by you. In your space, your energy. "Step into my space. Let it take control. Feel my energy. Surging electricity..." Circles came from the house music scene. It did take away from the organic energy. It killed the collective vibe. But, it was a change in social consciousness. The 60s vibe ended in the 80s. The 90s was the beginning of the "me era". The communal vibe gave way to the egocentric vibe. Even studio 54 was inclusive. Celebrities partying with someone who worked at McDonalds. The 90s was the beginning of the end.

      What i remember was that circles would spontaneously form and then dissolve, i noticed this mainly in the hip hop scene but did see it in the house scene at certain spots like Sound Factory, but they would always dissolve, nowadays i see people having a circle all night... but back in the day circles would spawn when certain songs played other than you would be trying to dance with a girl or whoever you were into...

      @@djdedan In my experience, those circles would appear and disappear whenever the standard hip hop DJ did a few songs for a house set. Once the genre switched back, the circle would just be a memory.

      Circle or as folk call them now cypher. Are organic collaboration, between the dj music selection to reach soul of the dancer! And for the dancer to release and to interpret the music by being artists
      It was never suppose to be man made stage to show how well you can dance.

    At the Paradise garage there was no circles everyone dance with each other all by themselves and sometimes in groups, Richard long was accessible to the paradise garage because if anything went wrong with the system he lived a few blocks away, there's no place like it and there never will be❤❤❤❤❤

    “The circle” emanated from the Hip Hop scene when breakdances and boogeyboys battled. House music took it and they battled one another in the circle. Then they made it a cultural thing. But the true “circle” was the Hip Hop battle stage for all to see.

      Respectfully disagree. Before hip-hop there was uprockers. That's where the circles/cyphers originated. It was always a competitive thing. They dance to tracks like Just Begun, The Mexican, Stone Fox Chase ... Hip Hop came later.

      These guys were from the Loft, I was in some of those Circles. You could definitely tell who was from the Garage and who was from the Loft, definitely a different style. Had to make adjustments going back and forth. I know that I will get flamed for this when the Garage closed and I went to Zanzibar, it was a whole different vibe, felt like I had to watch my back the whole time, went there only a few times.. What was up with that carpet on the floor, didn't they hear of baby powder... Long Live the Loft... Paradise for Life...the girl with the bells has been spotted in Atlanta 😊

    I didn't see anyone doing the "homo" dance, lol. That's what it was called back in 85 or was it 86? I was there like 3 times. Meeting phyne ass women all the way from Baltimore and Philly and other places that used to be there just to see what the club was all about. The ramp to go pay, the dressing rooms, couldn't hear shit but the music beating on your heart, fucking up the rhythm of your pulse and shit. The bar (dont fuck with that punch, it is spiked. That was the first thing my boys told me), people chilling at the movie theater and at the terrace too. I believe I was the one of the few teenagers snucked in there back in them days. Next thing you know, the lease was not renewed and the club had to close its doors. I believe I was already in the US Army when that happened. My boys Rican and Tony told me about it.
