a dance that is mostly done at ska or reggae shows. its super fun, dont care what people think or say because the true ska fans will just appreciate that your not standing stiffly and instead enjoying yourself.

Yes, theres a "right" way to skank, but its more of a common understanding of what it looks like so dont worry if your not doing it EXACTLY the same. its about expressing your personality, it might feel funny at first but just lose yourself in the music and itll feel right

its really just about feeling the musiccc

A great way to express your inner happiness! or not
stupid girly bitch: ew, like what are those people doing. HAHA!
