174 Breakdancing Breakdancing has become the most popular freestyle dance in America. People ev- erywhere are striving to learn the new street dance. Al- though it has just recently be- come popular, breakdancing really began a long time ago. According to some, break- dancing first developed with the Three Stooges, who cre- ated flexible, rhythmic move- ments for humor; apparently, they unwittingly started a dance trend. The street gangs in New York City then picked it up and turned them into a dance that has spread across the country. Monacan, too, has felt the impact of the new art; it is no longer very unusual to see var- ious students spinning and gy- rating on the floor of the Com- mons after school. Sopho- mores Charles Jackson and Orlando Alston are two excel- lent examples of those that have been breakdancing since it first became a craze. Without lessons, they have turned their hobby into a talent Sophomores that many of their peers enjoy to watch. Charles and Orlando danced at school pep rallies and in the Spring musical, HMS Pinafore. They also par- ticipated in the school Talent Show in which they won Sec- ond Place. As well as breakdancing at school, Charles has partici- pated in a contest at Durham. Orlando has been a part of shows at both Cloverleaf Mall and Regency Square and has also performed in a contest at 2001 Supper Club. In addition, he teaches breakdancing to other young people. By doing so, he hopes to contribute his talents to the spread and growth of this enjoyable and unusual hobby. Thus, Monacan’s afficiona- dos of a nationwide fad, Charles and Orlando, truly demonstrate that students can be skilled and creative in areas that, while not exactly school related, do serve to make high school life a bit more bearable. Latest Fad. Stepping forward to re- ceive their second place award in-the Talent Show, Charles and Orlando -ean be proud of their breakdancing abilities.
