早期的霹靂舞 (Break Dancing)

現今我們在MTV上看見的舞蹈多為嘻哈舞曲、靈魂樂及funk；您也許以為這些超酷的嘻哈舞曲動作是嶄新的發明，但您相信其中的一些動作自1800年代後期就出現了嗎？許多舞蹈動作都是借自體操動作；在這部電影中，一個來自Cheriff巡迴表演團、名叫卻裡夫 (Hadji Cheriff) 的表演者正在表演體操的例行動作，其加上了一系列的單臂側轉；您能想像他在練習這些動作時是搭配何種類型的音樂嗎？

These days the dancing we see on MTV is usually hip-hop, soul, and funk. You may think that those oh-so-cool hip-hop moves are brand new, but can you believe that some of them have been around since the late 1800s? A lot of dancing borrows many moves from gymnastics. In this film, a performer called Hadji Cheriff, of the Cheriff troupe of Arabs, performs a gymnastic routine with a series of one-armed cartwheels. Can you imagine what kind of music he used for this routine?
