Hip-hop dance refers to street dance styles primarily performed to hip-hop music or that have evolved as part of hip-hop culture. It includes a wide range of styles which was created in the 1970s and made popular by dance crews in the United States.

Breakdancing, also called breaking or b–boying/b-girling, is an athletic style of street dance from the United States. While diverse in the amount of variation available in the dance, breakdancing mainly consists of four kinds of movement: toprock, downrock, power moves and freezes.

Freestyle dance, or dance improvisation, is the when you spontaneously make movement with your body. This means you’re not following choreography; just moving. … Freestyling is a skill that can be cultivated through diligence and practice.

Krumping is a style of street dance popularized in the United States, described as Afro-diasporic dance, characterized by free, expressive, exaggerated, and highly energetic movement. Dancers who started krumping saw the dance as a means for them to escape gang life and “to express raw emotions in a powerful but non-violent way.”
