I Dont know why kids think this is cool. Most talented metal bands will tell the hardcore kids that no dancing is allowed. Most hardcore kids are OBSESSED with their self-image(they say it's for getting girls) and the whole hardcore scene is the same way, my few hardcore friends are so "metro" I can't help but laugh to myself every time I see them. If hardcore dancing is skillfull then so is having an epileptic siezure.
There is no set guidline to hardcore dancing, you just wait for breakdowns in songs, and make sure you look like a total lunatic while trying to find your "own style" in your flailing.
That music club has hardcore dancing competitions.

Hardcore dancing is the worst thing to ever happen to music since disco dancing.

the rare and mysterious skill of letting go of your body and shaking every appendage as fast as possible. These dancers, also known as "Willy Wonka"s do not enjoy being touched when they are in the zone. If you do run into one of these people, protect your testicles. They dont like to fight fair.

harcore dancing usually takes place at hxc shows
mostly to harcore bands like "between the buried and me"
it consist on some basic moves
like the wind mill:moving your arms around your body
or picking up change:punching the floor and reaching to
your pockets

they are many moves and it might all just depend where you live because the scene is different everywhere you go

the pit might be different at times it just depends
on how crowded or how heavy the music is
real hardcoe kids dont mind a bloody nose
but "scenesters" are allways craving for space
to dance on

NIGG did you see that pit?

yeah i spin kicked that mofo

Hardcore dancing is something that gets confused with scene dancing alot. Pretty much everybody here described HC dancing as what scene dancing is: Pussy scene kids trying to hardcore mosh. I don't blame anyone for thinking its lame and weak as shit.

Hardcore dancing barely consists of "kicks and punches". It is a style of mosh done while a hardcore band is playing there set. It is all about maximum energy output. If you saw real HC dancing, you would not call it pussy.

This is how it works:
1. The band starts playing a song on the stage.
2. People line up perpendicular to the stage (on each end).
3. They start charging at each other and provoking others around then to join in.
4. The walk/run across the floor is done with alot of agressivness. There are some moves done here such as whiping your arms behind your back, sliding your feet around, busting out, stretching forward then retracting immediatly, etc.
5. The song gets going. A fast beat is playing, and there is some slight mosh going on. Then the song really gets going and the stage dives begin. There are pile up, sing alongs, varieties of jumps.
6. Then there is a breakdown in the song. Everyone stops and start two steppin. It gets heavier and there is more agressive two steppin, and also some stage steppin.
8. Back to the fast part.
9. Now it's time for the throwdown. This is what scene kids try to copy but end up doing it pussy style. It's like a breakdown but alot heavier. People tend to get low and sing their arms in beat to the song. If you saw a real throwdown you would never mention pussy around hardcore again.


Then is more random 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9, etc. throughout the set. There are definalty alot of HC dance moves, but none of which are pussy.

fucking-retarded, assholes who flip around like the worthless monkeys they are at heavy-music shows. Everytime i see them, they hit people on the offsides and then almost get their asses kicked and they get pissed off at THAT PERSON for almost kicking their ass....its like: "dude, are you a fucking moron? you just kicked that guy!..THAT is why he is about to kill you!" I dont know who started this, but they deserve to die...i think it was the gay-ass emo/screamo/fakepunkish/ska/indie and whatever else you call that bullshit excuse for distorted guitar and drumming. These kids are not true at all, they're fake and they all hate MTV but they are JUST AS BAD. they are to be shot at once. And if you think im an old-washed up shit: im only 18. thank you. PANTERA
Hardcore Dancing? What ever happened to good old fashion moshpits? oh yeah, the young dumb-fuck generation is here...i forgot. i'm ashamed to be young today.

To look like an idiot at hardcore shows, while punching the air and ground. Hardcore dancers will not actually watch the band play, they would rather imagine they are fighting invisible bad guys. Often times hardcore dancers will ruin the show for anyone that is not hardcore dancing. But they do not care because they think the world revolves around them.
Oh my God, open up a pit so we can do some awesome hardcore dancing. I really want to do a spin kick, I practiced it all day in my bedroom while listening to Norma Jean.
