This is a discussion on Jumpstyle tutorial within the Dance Instructionals forums, part of the Dance discussion category: I found this today hope it helps
YouTube - Patrick Jumpen : Jumpstyle How-To Video......
that's a great tut.. and it really just looks like good fun.. i've been toying with the idea of maybe thinking about jumpstyle cuz i'm pretty damn bouncy when i dance and this makes me wanna do it..
dance dance in the morning light
open your darkened eyes
hey, hey, it’s a beautiful day
it’ll be ok. it’ll be ok.
passion becomes wisdom..
Jumpstyle is really fun and addicting. Really get pumped when I do it. It's all about finding the beat and just flowing with it. Try it doing a single glowstring and jumpstyle lots of fun.
single glowstring? ha try both strings, throw on a small backpack, a messenger bag, some ski goggles, photons+sticks on the strings (photons on strobe+sticks=slightly akward but freaking amazing lightshow btw) AND jumpstyle... and that was about half an hour of Enchanted Eve ^^
hahah its really wierd to try to cooridinate all of that movement at once, while coping with carrying all that stuff...
oh i was carrying it cause i didnt have 2 bucks for coatcheck XD
thats what i get for buying sticks instead, i guess :P
there were these guys kinda screwin around kandi stomping/jumpstlyle at the door, i watched them for a moment (i didnt have my stuff on then) then i started a jumpstyling a bit, and this guy totally tripped out
anyway thanks for the vid, that really helps a lot
I believe in looking reality straight in the eye and denying it.
jumpstyle is cool and all but im kinda into other stuff more. it looks sooo nic if done correctly. i wanna learn so bad.
All because of you
I believe in angels.
Not the kind with wings,
No, not the kind with halos;
The kind that bring you home
When home becomes a strange place.
I'll follow your voice;
All you have to do is
Shout it out....

i think it looks like irish step dancing meets judo meets some sort of wannabe breakdancing. i might try my own variations of this form of dance without kicking my legs so far out in front of me so as not to injure anyone around and play around with some popping and breaking concepts together so i make a whole new genre of dance... wheeeee!
i forgot to mention...+ freehanding with my glowsticks. i think you all knew by now that i was n00bing the freehand though. practice practice practice!
update: was just dancing along with the tutorial and i feel really stupid doing jumpstyle but it's really that sort of uninhibited guilty pleasure you can get away with when no one's watching. i don't think i could ever do it in public, at least not sober.
