do u know wacking and voguing is actually hindu traditional dances

​@@Hindu9054voguing is not Hindu tradition it's created by lgbtq+, poc's mainly black and latina

Waacking and Voguing actually had similar starts back in the day. Both were started by African American and Latino Queer people and both were kind of considered to be underground dance styles. One of the key differences between the two of them is that Waacking was started in the West Coast in Hollywood emulating the golden era of Hollywood, while Voguing started in the East Coast in NYC first emulating the poses on the cover of Vogue Magazine, then evolving into arm control and tutting, then into the current style of vogue which is Vogue Femme.

please learn that latin dance flamenco is actually indian dance, its accepted worldwide@@jefmarquez2863

The voguing you see here is only very controlled because he's only doing the hands/arms control aspect of it.

Arms control

Different style. Sometimes vogue has a bit of tutting. While vogue has fluidity and you’re more free with arms and hands, tutting is all about precision, geometry, and angles,

ok good thats what i need to hear rn 👁️👅👁️👍🏻​@@cybergalacticnova

Whacking isn't a real thing..

@@terrancejovan4825 It is. Stop disrespecting waacking and its history.

​@@terrancejovan4825Have u changed your beliefs now? Lol

See again

Waacking is about fast, powerful hand and arm movements whereas vogue hand performance is more about precision and control

@@lilsmolcrow hand performance is about telling a story!

@@lilsmolcrow no hand perfomance can be fast also. A lot of people don’t usually do “ fast perfomance “ wacking is the same thing as vouging.

@@kingamir3180 Correct.. Whacking is their weird attempt at a rebrand of ballroom culture and vogue.. I really wish they would develop their own things instead of attempted to steal ours..

Waacking seems like more of a fast-paced performance while voguing seems more deliberate (ohh, that's not the word) and utilizes more precise movements of the hands and arms making for a more sensual and expressive performance... They're both pretty expresssive though. I dunno... I'm not a dancer, that's all I got from it. Someone please correct me or add to that, lol. Cheers

Their is no difference.. It's an attempted rebrand.. It's what these culture vultures do..

@@terrancejovan4825 What are you even talking about?? Culture vultures lmao?

@@MrAdryan1603 I'm not here to play your passive-aggressive games. I said wtf I said.

@@terrancejovan4825 Oh dang, I honestly wasn't trying to be rude or anything like that.. I think the way I worded it came out wrong. I can't even remember what I was responding to but I was probably just amused and/or confused as to what you meant. My bad! I was genuinely curious what that term meant, though. Anyway Cheers, have a good one buddy

I mean to be fair. They were mostly doing hand peformances. The hand performances were great in my opinion. You aren't wrong this isn't 100% vogue, but its one of the elements. The hand performances you can tell were more Old Way with spices of Femme within it. We appreciate the history lesson, but if you're gonna give a critique, give a critique. If you are looking for more elements then just say that. This video is more about the difference between the two styles in what they have in common [hand/arm movements.] In my opinion is should the title should Waacking vs Vogue [Hand Performance]. Maybe an explanation within the video to explain the differences between Waacking [Controlled and Cadenced] and Voguing [Fluidity and Dynamics] so people can understand the CORE difference between the COMPARISON.

@@ShardOfFire Don't tell me I'm wrong I was there back there in the mid seventies when it 1st started! You weren't! All the creative ones that are dead if today they were alive and the minute you came on to the floor and the category was "vogue's" and they did that within a second you would have been chopped! The category is VOGUE! NOT BREAKDANCE! OKAY!....Take that to the corner of 42nd & 8th Avenue!.🤨

@@itsokitsok5020 I respect that you were there during the 70s. But the fact you're calling this breakdancing shows that you lack either knowledge of other styles of dance or your being purposely malicious. As I stated before this shows the difference in the hand performances of both styles in order to TEACH those to discern the difference in appearance between them. You are coming from a place of talking down to people instead of educating them. Regardless of your standings in the Ballroom era, you should giving critiques and teaching people. Especially if you're a Mother/Father. If you want the children to learn then teach. If you don't wanna teach, then I'd advise not to criticize if you aren't wanting people to grow and learn from it.

​@@ShardOfFire yeah whats interesting about this vogue performance was because of its limited body movements- it almost seemed like the average person could mistake this for tutting instead of voguing

Most of this seems kinda off tbh bc Ballroom is still heavily in mainstream media… FKA TWIGS, Nordstrom, & Beyoncé have used influences from ballroom in the past year alone. Also old “Vogue Performance” was for Butch queens. Todays new Vogue is based off of Femme Queens who invented softer and more feminine ways of Vogue. Femme Queens paved the way for Ballroom to transform into a heavily Vogue femme space in the 80s & 90s. If you watch old balls from the 80s & 90s you’ll see the evolution of Vogue femme. I think overall this was just you flexing knowledge rather than actual understanding. Performance categories have never been choreographed unless it’s performance as a house or for specific purposes. If you’re at a ball and do choreography, you’ll get chopped and it’s typically been like that for like… ever The video shows how versatile hand performance is and it shows how strong whacking is. There’s a very clear difference between the two.

This is hands performance and arms control from voguing

@@bogieee3329 I know

@@sayno2lolzisback ？😂

@@bogieee3329 No it isn't.. It's a mess is what it is.. And an attempted rebrand.. Whacking does not exist and I would appreciate if you vultures stopped trying to rebrand ballroom culture and vogue..

They are forever trying to rebrand our culture.. Whacking is not a thing..

not waacking being created before the voguing☠️ you definetly need to search for a history. if you think they are the same, you obviously dont know about waacking and especially voguing either

​@@terrancejovan4825 educate yourself, google is available for everyone

@@axelle2620 I don't need google to tell me about a culture that I'm apart of and that belongs to my community. I know the history of it! I was there.. Whacking does not exist..

@@terrancejovan4825 you gotta know that waacking is older than voguing. im a vogue dancer, but i have respect to other cultures and learned about their history. They are literally so different. This is so stupid to deny its existence. How come a dancer, whose genre is voguing, where everyone expresses themselves in any way tries to tame others, who are expressing themselves by waacking? You dont deserve to be called a voguer.
