I call it grooving, but other people just say raving. Its hard to explain..Its just using your dancing skills to "defeat" your opponent...Its quite fun actually.

Well you just moved to california right? in the bay area, San Jose specifically there is tons of parties during the summer, literally every weekend, but the bigger parties draw the bigger names like Cyberfest and Metropolis are two of the biggest. There might be one for New Years.

usually held at raves and the 18+ clubs
usually a human circle is built, in the middle there will be two people trying to "PUNK" the other one with innovative dancing moves.
while the rest of the crowd cheers them on. sometimes they are alright but when someone is doing liquid and this twat starts break dancing it ruins the whole thing. happen to me when i was younger and used to that. i just walked off.
sometimes some of the people are very good dancers. this works well for the people who don't want to look crazy while dancing. just copy some of their moves.

I've seen dance battles before.. @ Buzz, Nation, pretty cool stuff, but im not as L33T as they are. I can pop n lock and stuff, but not real good.

As for raving, i never really learned it..i just kind of watched peopl, taught myself and just go with the music. I cant hold on to glowsticks for the life of me lol they always fly out of my fingers and hit people hahaah!

o well

each to their own

i love battling
