Hipster dancing is the movement done by one who is a hipster at shows and scene clubs. the movment requires not only concentration of the body but of the attitude.
the facial expression must be of a pissed off, mad to be here, bitter at the world scowl.
the body will sway from side to side with feet tapping in sort of a toe touch motion.
the bouncing of the body is subtle and the hands are forced straight down with an occasional snap.
its quite hilarious. sometimes you can add in the quirky dance move such as bringing back a retro move or a move you made up that is only known amongst the group.
im summary: look upset to be here, be drunk off PBR, reak of cigarettes and marc jacobs perfume, wear american apparel and look like an idiot.
it's fun, i do it all the time.

Get the Hipster dancing mug.a person that claims to be a 'hippy' (most often from guelph) but is rather in fact quite contrary to the oldschool definition of peace and love. Instead they tend to be terribly pretentious, condescending, snobbish, think they're the shit etc.
They also try to make it look as though they put no thought or effort whatsoever into picking their attire, but really they put as much if not moreso attention into NOT matching, (like hippies are expected to) or looking like they haven't applied themselves to the task of dress/hygeine.
Also, they love to hold style and co-ordination against those who have a little more security in their self and identity. But being put together doesn't make one shallow of course. Appreciation for line/seam/colour and putting them together as a form of self expression or fun, should not be deemed automatically synonymous with empty scenesterism - especially not by people who are just as much scenesters if not more so, just pretending they're not at all at all.
Unaccepting. Exclusive. Contrary to the term hippy - yet they sure as heck seem to think they are. Or would like so for the world to perceive them as such open harmonious things (this is not at all the case).
This term was derived by yusef. but i can't help but feel immensely it couldn't possibly be more appropriate to apply to what I had to grow up surrounded by in guelph.
