This video brings back great memories of the early 80's and being Latino. There aren't many recorded examples of freestyle dancing. This video is a gem.
I'm not even Latino and this brings back memories of being Latino. I got introduced to electronic music in good old TJ ... mid 80s high school days... Revolution Avenue!
Florentine Gardens was my first club experience ever. I wasn't even old enough, but we almost always got in with fake IDs. My first boyfriend, ever, i met at Florentine Gardens. Used to go to Venice beach all the time but never for breakdancing. Keanu Reeves used to hang out there with the skaters. But i went there for the crushes we had on a couple of the Venice Suicidal kids.
Picture this.- silly as it looks, all the competitors actually knew how to dance at the time this video was shot. What you don't see are the average kids (the ones cheering) who wanted to dance like them but didn't have the swag or moves. Trust me, them quinceanera parties in the 80's were so much fun, kids wanted to make those moves, and imitate those dancers. It was hilarious!!! I remember my brothers practicing their dance routines In front of a mirror and trying out new outfits for the weekend apartment parties. Man I miss those years, 1985/1988 80's disco years.
Thank you for sharing this. Girl promoters, truck clubs help my promotion market my events. Aquamen Enterprises, Tony Martinez and his Ladies in Red. We were blessed to have so many of these girl promoters and truck clubs pack our events at the Hollywood Florentine Gardens, D.Q.s Soto & Olympc, Electric Circus (aka Ginos) Casa Camino Real, Sports Arena, Olympic Auditorium, Hollywood Paladium, well so many events and clubs. It was an adventure of the 80's. We passed out flyers there as well. Elysian Park, San Antonio Winery on Sunday's these promoters met us there, distributing our flyers. Marketing was all about Dance, Wow girls, wow guys and just a good time. Thanks for sharing this video.
80s where the best times freestyle music Latino, Mr Js in El Monte and Las Cabernas in El Monte ca. Cruising in East Los Angeles! Awesome memories! I still listen to this music!!!
great video, I'm from 78 and grew up listening to this amazing music. It reminds me of the nightclubs and hard house music in the 90's at the arena and the circus disco in Hollywood.
I hung out at Circus. Circus was my #1 club with the best Dj’s. I had VIP access thanks to Gene and Lorenzo. Ginos, Hollywood Tropicana and Florentine Gardens...great memories...
Yup!!! Mr. Jay's in Hollywood was hella fun!!! My girls and I were ALWAYS there... rain or shine. We LIVED THERE!!! Did you know Cesar Dinero? Boys From Brazil? Etc. After hours parties! Breakfast at Dennys!! Tommy's!!! ❤

Si ahí era yo iba mucho estaba sobre la puente Avenue había concursos de bailes los peinados de las chicas llenos de spray para para que el cabello tuviera mucho volumen, concurse una vez y gane pero no me dieron nada
Name of song pls. I used to have a mixtape with that song and others my dad made way back in the 80's the tape was then trashed after so many plays when i was a kid.
God I hate regina spektor, her so called music gives me a dam headache if i want to listen to 80's music i will put the real stuff on my record player and jam
My dad is in this dance contest and I will forever be proud of it!
It would be a nice idea to video and interview your Dad and ask when he started dancing and who inspired his moves. What clubs did he first go to etc…
Do you know what's the first song's name?

The good old days when people actually danced rather than stand around with their hands raised to a DJ. I love this video. It's my favorite.
The best times. We talked, drank, danced and lived . Now just staring at a phone
@25ch25 no, today there is coronavirus
Phone evil
Oh quit whining
“Now just staring at a phone” - written on a phone by someone staring at a phone.
