Suffice it to recall that tango in the period of its occurrence in the dance culture was considered something obscene and unacceptable for decent young ladies. Disputes over jazz were many, but they subsided after the advent of rock-n-roll, twist and shake. About dancing in the disco is really to say almost nothing: the elderly happy sigh, seeing this calm in the ranks of the youth, but in the mid-eighties appeared the break dance, which became another challenge to conservatism and a huge help for cleaners dance halls (young people, riding and spinning, wiping the floors of his clothes).

And now the twerk. This sexually provocative dance performed by girls. It has become fashionable relatively recently, although there are more than two decades ago. Energetic causing movement to rhythmic music with an ambiguous (and sometimes explicitly) the texts themselves are nothing new to present. But there is something that distinguishes twerk from a number of other modern dance-“Bolotnicov”.

It is produced in the counter against the hips, if the chest rotates to the right, the buttocks to the left, and Vice versa.
