Every Wednesday evening, the 1Up Crew gathers at In The Groove Studios in downtown Oakland for a free open lab session. That's where you'll see folks perfecting their moves and dancing in a variety of styles: turfing, ballroom, pop locking and krumping. It's all in preparation for monthly battles against other crews.
Some of the battles are freestyle, others are three-on-three dance-offs where teams choreograph routines in a format that's similar to the movie, "You Got Served."
But this is real life, real people and a real story about dancing in Oakland-- as shown through one of the crew’s leaders, Tarik Rollerson, a third generation dancer from the town, who is part of a community that’s creating a new way of giggin’.
We all know that in the Bay Area, “We dance a little different.”
Today, Tarik gives us some insight on why we move the way we do.
