the difference between waacking and voguing❤️

[@ermexik8]

video is too short...

[@MaddieFishblob]

Seeing them side by side made me realize they’re actually more similar than I thought!😮 but wacking is more upright and elegant while vogue is more sassy and energetic. Maybe that’s why I prefer wacking 😂 cuz as a ballet dancer I’m pretty stiff and upright but I feel like wacking actually allows u to be that way while still feeling the music and looking cool 😗

[@tortis6342]

Fellow ballet dancer spotted!

[@that.one.freckled.ravenette]

FELLOW BALLET DANCERS SPOTTED!!

[@rosetyong]

then maybe that’s why i prefer voguing as a person with bad posture 😂

[@FireDancingKira]

If I’m remembering this correctly - vogueing was developed in New York where the modeling scene was big, and racking was developed in LA/West Coast area where film was big. So the two styles pull inspiration from the adjacent industry

[@Beaurisque]

I'm drunk, i've never heard of waacking or voguing, I really don't know what brought me here and I don't understand what I'm watching but I'm here for it. Dang girl, GIT IT

[@Oberatous-Udurabas]

Here’s what I noticed/what I think differentiates them Waacking = sharp defined isolated broken up movements outward Voguing= series of fluid movements around a fixed area (head or chest etc) not broken up often repeated

[@honooryu5374]

sounds about right

[@galacticstarbucks6177]

Vogue comes from the East Coast ballroom scene, so it’s defined by having clean, sharp movements and ‘poses’ like a Vogue model would. Waacking, on the other hand, has its origins in the West Coast disco scene, so it focuses on flow and musicality. When you watch videos of how people used to dance in disco clubs back in the 70s, you’ll see the influence much clearer.

[@8jaime8]

Such a beautiful combination of feminine fluidity and clean moves!

[@RomyAnton]

I've never heard of waacking, but have seen that style. My eyes just opened up. Love love love !!!! Love to learn that style!!

[@bisma1352]

I'd heard of it due to the ice dancing pair guillame cizeron and gabby papadakis, they did it in their 2021 season and Olympics routine. This video finally cleared up how whacking wasn't just appropriating vogueing which i mistakenly thought at the time

[@Bunny-ft9dy]

[@nayeonyny432]

[@KeylaKey________]

About Bayonetta, her dance style seems to be waacking in the first and second game, and vogue in the third. Although I think Bayonetta's dancer actress must use a combination of both.

[@KATinBLACK]

Yeah it feels like a combo of both. I can’t remember the dancer’s name they use mocap for Bayonetta (1&2) but she does fusion dancing of different styles. She’s amazing ❤ It’s Maiko Uchida

[@plainsalt]

As someone who used to dance Vogue, not really, wearing heels and being feminine isn't Vouging. The 5 base elements of Vogue are: hand performance, floor performance, catwalk, duckwalk, spin and dip (no, it's not a "death drop"). She does not use most of the elements that make up the style. She does catwalk but that's mainly inspired by just femininity and sex-appeal I'd say. She does pose on the floor but that isn't neccessarily Vogue, it's more like Heels I think. I also see elements of modern and RnB with some of the poses and movements. In the end it's her choreographer, Maiko Uchida's own unique style, we shouldn't forget that everyone has their own dance style, especially professionals who know how to use movements to express themselves in a clear way. Bayonetta dances in a more echanting and while Vogue is really fun, I wouldn't call it enchanting.

[@professoremil]

This is so Bayonetta-coded.

[@evilmarketing]

The outfit was amazing.

[@rajori111]

guys guys guys i've seen the word "tutting" too, how is that one like?

[@buzzy33]

Tutting is more focused on making geometric formations with your hands and arms only (if im not mistaken)

[@MaddieFishblob]

The funny thing is, the style was actually named after King Tut 😂 So if u think of the stereotypical “Egyptian pose” with the fingers flat together and the wrists and elbows at straight angles, then add variety and fluidity to movement between similar poses, you’ve got tutting

[@rajori111]

oooouuh thank you guys so much i love yall

[@username_136-83]

For an idea of tutting, please watch the music video of "Naughty" by Irene & Seulgi, the dance is super interesting and so is the song!

I still dont see much difference between vogue old way and waacking. can someone explain?

[@drippycity4135]

As another commenter describes, waacking is more upright and classy, while vouguing is more sassy and energetic

[@АзаматханАрифханов]

Also I recalled "Friendship is manly"

[@Kaalokalawaia]

[@OceanbornAngel]

So...was Madonna actually doing Waacking instead of actual Vogueing in her Vogue choreography?

[@meirisoda]

No, she was doing vogue! It's called "old way" because you pose like you're on the cover of vogue. The one haejun's doing on the right is a mix of "new way", "hands performance" and "vogue fem"

[@VBMichael_D]

Yeah, 'whacking' means something else entirely to me. So if two of these dancers get into a dance battle, is it going to be called a Waack-off?

[@YapatononskibidiinohioYapper]

2am recommendation is weird ahh shlt bro 😂

Waacking match the rythm more often than the vogue style and for me that's what matter . If youre moves are beautiful, but don't match the music - it feels off

So wacking is the threatening version of voguing

[@ZipplyZane]

The voguing seems a bit too hyper based on what I'm used to that word meaning.

[@happyninja42]

soo...basically just more precise lock gestures with full stopping of motion, instead of constant, fluid movements. ok. also...wth is waacking? i mean where did that term come from? apparently it's been a thing for at least 1 year, given how old this clip is, but it's the first I've heard of the term

Whacking rerun, Voguing underground ball room

[@marioques]

Wow!!! As a professional dancer since 1979 I've seen thousands of dancers and tens of styles. At 64 years young I keep my mind open to new things and I've watch videos of voguing, which mostly I don't really like, with feminine men with too exaggerated manners, curved spine, bent knees and sticking buts. I noticed the waaking videos of Asian women were impressive. but didn't expect seeing a better version of vogue and I just watched this one and I find her f...g beautiful, feminine, elegant and creative. Dancers like this make me wish being 20 years younger. This is art!

[@Axadn]

Do you ever watch "old way" or "new way" vogue? They are older styles that are quite different from "vogue fem", which is the most popular style nowadays. I agree "vogue fem" does start to look a bit stereotyped sometimes

[@earth222spirit6]

voguing, a black lgbt+ dance style, is not done “better” by asian women. they are paying homage and they do NOT do it better than the ppl who created it. and as a dancer u should respect that. this dancer is amazing bt ur comment is both disingenuous and disrespectful to vogue and ballroom culture.

[@yourbrokenoven]

so, basically, no difference.

[@brennymcphees7557]

This was originally done in an episode of The Patty Duke Show.

[@tylermcleod2583]

I hope ur joking, because neither of these dance styled were "originally" done from that show. Vogueing originated in the early 1960s, same time as that show. but not originally on it at all. Vogueing originated in the club scene as a way to express identity in a world that made it illegal. Whaacking originated in the 70s inspired by "punking" another style of dance, again from the gay clubs during the disco era, again not from that show. Please don't spread false information.

[@8jaime8]

@tylermcleod2583 LMAO. If you look up The Patty Duke Show, you’ll see that comment is akin to saying that The Brady Bunch invented punk rock. It’s totally silly, and definitely nothing to get so upset over that you start going on completely unwarranted socio-political rants. I hope this didn’t happen because you’ve been indoctrinated to see appropriation and injustice when there is absolutely none. You deserve better than that. Maybe avoid all that victim ish online. It may be a tired cliche but it’s still good advice: maybe go touch some grass. Planet Earth loves you.
