Main article: Popping: Sam Solomon created Popping dance in Fresno,his crew the Electric Bugaboos and California performed . It,s a based on the technique of quickly relaxing and contracting muscles to cause a jerk in a dancer's body, referred to as a pop or a hit. Each hit should be synchronized to the beats and rhythm of the music. Popping is also used as an umbrella term to refer to a wide range of other closely related illusionary dance styles like as liquid, st-robing,waving and animation.Dancer often integrate these styles with standard popping to create a varied performance.In all of these sub-genres, it appears to the spectator that the body is popping, hence the name. The difference between each sub-genre is how exaggerated the popping is. In liquid, the body movements look,s like water. The popping step is so smooth that the movements do not look like popping at all; they look fluid.The opposite of this is strobe in which the movements are staccato and jerky.Popping as an umbrella term also includes floating, gliding and sliding, which are lower body dance done with the feet and legs. In gliding, a dancer appears as if they are drifting across the floor on ice. Opposite from gliding is tutting which is an upper body dance that uses the hands,arms and wrists to form right angles and create geometric box-like shapes. Tutting can be done primarily with the fingers rather than the arms. This method is called finger tutting. In both variations, the movements are linear,intricate and form 90° or 45° angles. In practice, tutting looks like the characters on the art of ancient Egypt, hence the name—a reference to King Tut.all term is widely used by hip-hop dancers and in competitive hip-hop dance, Timothy "pop-in Solomon of the Electric Bugaboos disagrees with the use of the word "popping" in this way. Many of these related styles (tutting,animation,liquid etc.) can not be traced to 1 person or group. Solomon states.There are people who wave and there are people who tut. They’re not popping. I say this to give the people who created other styles their just dues and their props.
