Krump dancing is a high-energy, expressive dance style that originated in Los Angeles in the early 2000s. It is characterized by its fast, frenetic movements and energetic, emotive expressions and is often performed in a group setting.
Today, krump dancing is a popular dance form practiced by people of all ages and backgrounds. It is often performed in battles, where dancers compete against each other in a friendly but intense competition. Krump dancers are known for their powerful, energetic performances and ability to express themselves through their movements.
