Voguing-Bboying-Bgirling – Vogue or voguing refers to a dance style that originated in New York Harlem. This dance style developed through its typically strictly linear and right-angled arm and leg movements based on the poses and postures of models. The name comes from the fashion magazine of the same name, Vogue. The basis of the movement is the conscious stride on the catwalk, which is characterized by a pronounced swing of the hips and the crossing of the balls of the feet when touching down on an absolutely straight line. Each step is emphasized individually and supported with the shoulders. Based on this, movements are incorporated that end in poses that are held for brief moments. Originally, these poses were inspired by martial arts films, hip-hop and rhythmic gymnastics, with some dancers claiming to recreate Egyptian hieroglyphics with their bodies. Finally, typical poses from fashion photography prevailed: Every movement marks a photo, a sequence of movements a series of photos. Lines and angles are precisely rehearsed and executed.
