The Origins of Rock n Roll
Rock n roll has a captivating history, stemming from the 1940s and 1950s when it revolutionised the music scene. This genre melded rhythm and blues with country music, quickly making its mark and captivating the youth of the time. It influenced not just music, but also fashion and dance styles. For instance, Elvis Presley’s iconic moves and Chuck Berry’s guitar riffs became a blueprint for many performers.
Today, rock n roll encompasses various dance styles. From classic rockabilly to modern interpretations, the lively beats continue to motivate young dancers.
The World Rock & Roll Confederation (WRRC)
To promote rock n roll dance on a global scale, the World Rock & Roll Confederation (WRRC) was formed. This organisation plays a crucial role in supporting competitions and setting standards in the sport. With an increasing number of competitions each year—over 200 in 2023 alone—the WRRC has fostered a competitive environment that showcases impressive acrobatic lifts, spins, and choreography set to contemporary hits.
The Evolution of Dance Styles
As rock n roll evolved, it birthed varied styles like boogie woogie, swing, and acrobatic rock n roll, each bringing a unique flavour. For instance, boogie woogie features rapid footwork whereas swing incorporates lively spins. According to Dance Magazine, these styles contribute significantly to the excitement surrounding rock n roll today.
Competitive rock n roll has transformed into a breath-taking display, blending impressive acrobatic moves with the infectious energy that characterises the genre. Dancers execute routines with elements such as lifts, tricks and throws, attracting audiences and inspiring young dancers to express themselves creatively.
