A Tendency of kids that listen to nu hardcore Music, to stand in the middle of the standing area and do things such as "windmills" and punch the air.
It is said that this is them expressing themselves. In actuallity, the idea of a "pit" is for people who have a lot of energy built up because of the band playing, to volunarily go in and flip out and beat the crap out of eachother. Yet
It is a positive thing and no one actually intentionally hits one another.
In the case of hardcore dancing. its one person arrogantly throwing their body parts around, and in many cases, hitting people that want nothing to do with them. Hard core dancing is frowned upon in the hardcore punk/ crust community because it is not seen as a way of truly enjoying the music..

If you like hardcore music the dancing can look really sweet and make live shows more energetic. This is the one and only positive side to it. "If you get hit you are supposed to take it for the team." It does not work that way in Jax, if you get hit you are supposed to take it, if you hit somebody your ass is jumped on by 10 people in the pit. Apparently there is a right and wrong way to do it because the so called scenesters target in on the amateurs.
I had a friend hardcore dance for the first time, apparently wrong. Hardcore faggot punches him so I give him a little shove, next thing I know I am on the ground with 6 guys throwing punches and kicks at me. Friend fights pussy one v one beats the shit out of him until 12 of their friends jump in and fuck us 3 up. What a fun thing to do

The worst form of dancing ever!
very popular in hardcore music(i wonder why its called harcore dancing), not so much in death metal or punk,
How it starts
1.Some dude will run behind all the people in front row and feel the need to push EVERY SINGLE PERSON!!!
but as soon as somone turn to see who the hell just interupted their show, that asshole will have hauled some serious ass away from everyone he just pushed
(ussually this person is just some asshole trying to start some shit with people)
2.A few people will sense(or know by heart), that a breakdown is coming up in a song. This is the best time to do this dance because anyone who moshes and actually hits people wont be in the pit, so the Hardcore Mosher will be nice and safe.
3.They will not get within 5 feet from anybody in the "hardcore pit", cuz then you might actually get hurt, oh no!
4.They will either
A.Be new at this and look like they are having a seizure and be a great joke for everyone watching
B.Punch the ground-crouch your knees and open-handedly punch at the ground
C.Punch the sky-after punching the ground, they will look upwards and punch clouds and shit
D.Bastardize the Skank-just start skaking, but instead of being peaceful with it, violently flail your fucking arms(but still not touch a single person!!!), until everyone else, or the singer, does somthing else
E.Reverse skank-instead of moving your arms or kicking fowards, you will need to grab you cock with both hands, and kick your feet behind you
F.NINJA KICK!!!-just kick whoever is behind you right in the fucking dick, but dont turn your body or look at them, just keep flailing your arms and everyone will think it was an accident
G.Windmill-the only thing that actually might take some skill and practice, just do a fancy flip kick whilst in the air, but land on your feet and punch the ground
H.Stomping-while doing most of these you must alternate stomping your feet(but dont worry, you dont need any rhythm at all, you dont need to be on beat)
5.Key rules(lolz)
A.only do it if a bunch of other people do it, cuz if you do it alone, you'l end up being embarresed and you might get laughed at!oh no!
B.Look good-forms of moshing, dancing, w/e, if you look really bad doing this, then it means you suck at it, it has NOTHING to do with expresion, or feeling the music, or skill(for the most part), or even stright up violence(cuz no one will hit you and you wont hit them)
IF YOU HATE THIS TYPE OF DANCING AS MUCH AS I DO!!!!
1.take off all your clothes except you underwear and start dancing with these seizure victims, it will be totally awesome, make them stop, and everyone will get an awesome laugh out of it
2.take a walk.i get so agrevated when a bunch a retards jump in a pit that i jus take a little stroll. you'l miss 5 mins. of a bad show, and retards having siezures(thats a good thing)
3.form a wall of death around the fucking idiots and charge their asses, they will be totally confused cuz most of them have never gotten hit or hit anyone in their life
DONT DISCRIMINATE AGAINST ANYONE WHO DOES THIS JUST CUZ THEY DO IT, JUST CUZ I CALL THEM RETARDS FOR DANCING LIKE THAT DOES NOT MEAN I HAVE ANY PROBLEM WITH THE PEOPLE WHO DO IT(JUST THEIR STUPID DANCE), MOST OF THE PEOPLE I KNOW WHO DO THIS ARE VERY NICE PEOPLE!!!(I TAKE THAT BACK, SOME PEOPLE ARE JUST DICKS FOR THE FUN OF IT)

as unbiased as possible:
To my understanding, hardcore dancing originated with Circle pits where you basically ran left in a circle and flailed your arms into the onlookers. then towards the 90's modern hardcore dancing emerged. unlike the Souther californian circle pits, modern day moshing started in places like New York and Boston which had thriving hardcore scenes. with the rapid growth of the dance came the breakdowns. Bands soon had to incorporate sections where fans could dance a specific way. The breakdown usually has the guitarist/s playing a few repetitive chords on the lowest strings while the drummer hits the bass pedal each time the guitarist strums resulting in an almost militaristic, uniform sound which many fans can show off their newly learned moves.
The most common dance moves are:
2 step which basically crosses one foot in front of the other while staying in generally the same place and arms swing across.
the windmill is when you flail your arms forward to the beat of the song
picking up change: pretty self explanatory
spin kick, also self explanatory
the dancing can even be applied to deathmetal/hardcore hybrid bands. using hxc dance moves during fights is highly discourages as this is only a fashion.

Hardcore dancing is really common in sacramento. A lot of the time people go to judge bands by their ability to create music to dance to. Sacramento is just becoming filled with pretentious pricks
Hardcore Dance is gay
