vogue battle: house dance international, NYC

ANDRE MIZRAHI vs. JAVIER NINJA
best vogue battle I've seen....
winner is Javier Ninja

[@profound21]

this video is off da hook.Both of these guys have incredible strength, flexibility as well as they are able to vogue and cover short and long distances across the stage. Man, i give them all respect. Alot of people make voging look sloppy in their performances but these guys set the bar for many.

[@navarronbret15]

.... um Andre is a legendary Icon and founder/overall father of one of the biggest houses in the voguing scene (Mizrahi) He IS vogue - Look him up on youtube. Javier is one of the best New Way performers learned from the infamous Willi Ninja. So to say they CAN'T vogue is a damn dirty LIE.

[@eyckzimmer5334]

I am coming back to this battle over and over again .....one of the finest !! Music - moves - attitude - all on point

[@annastepanenko2378]

Oh my gosh!!! This is so graceful. This is one of the best battle I have ever seen. No, maybe even the best. I wish I could dance like them.

[@keithko007]

[@jbs431]

For those who have asked about the name of the beat they are voguing off of....it's called "In The Mix" by Mix Masters (featuring MC Action) on DJ International Records...I believe this is the 'Fast Eddie Remix' version.

[@yourmofoface]

he makes it look so easy!!! that was amazing!!

[@bboyblue74]

Voguing will forever live on as House lives on!

[@manolitohh]

i love it....i started in the eighties to malcolm mclaren 'waltz darling'. of course voguing was a little different back then...and i don't think anybody in europe is doing it anymore, a shame. still very impressive and really an artform. these guys are amazing.

[@CameronCourts]

[@CVC92]

i so wanna vogue!!!

[@Dumpson83]

The comments below are tragic...The sheer precision shown by The Legendary Andre Mizrahi and Javier Ninja is amazing...respect the craft even if you do not agree with the lifestyle. As Emerald72 said, there is a level of talent that is involved with this that is so phenomenal, that all should take notice. Calling people names and all that is not needed...let those men live and SHINE, without any of your negative comments. RESPECT them! Additionally, this video was EVERYTHING! I enjoyed it!!

[@Lakishia]

wow he can dance, amazing!

[@bigwillie1019]

I am 48yrs old and I used to dance back then if a guy was to dance any other way he would never hear the end of it. But I am happy to see how much dance has grown this kind of dancing was always kept under ground now voguing is out in the open thanks to the dance group Vouge Evloution from America's Best Dance Crew (even Madonna but they were doing it before she got to it). But it's nice to see that a man does not have to be gay to dance well.

[@Wavecattt]

woooooo beautifulll i love it

[@joecool3bx]

incredible!

[@thaReverend]

i love it

[@Angielyrica]

hell yea they can. ladies love it. specially the ones up north

[@prd3067]

hot,hot HOT!!! amazing stuff...the track playing in the background was also in Madonna's Truth or Dare in a scene where they are all dancing in a hotel room...still haven't been able to find out the name!!

[@scottylectronica]

There is actually a 2 disc DVD coming out this fall of the House Dance International event. I've seen it. It is phenomenal. The vogue battle is the best one, but there are some other ones that are still hot. Plus interviews.

[@kosmoboi]

FLAWLESS...

[@crippledfinger]

[@LegionIvory]

That would be very cool to watch. "Tonight on AC360, British prime minister settles the export dispute with an amazing dip." That would be so awesome, man.

work it! guys if you havent heard already but there is a movie coming out about the drag ball scene called "Leave it on the floor" look out for it this summer

[@nate14ri]

the track is mixmasters - into the mix if anybody wants to know that.

[@MonetAllDay]

This was exciting :D !

[@navarronbret15]

Its a dance called voguing... It was made by the gay community many years ago (that explains the very feminine movements) it consist of 5 elements 1. Catwalk- the sashaying walk 2. Duckwalk- lower foot scooping and bouncing while squatting. 3. Hands Performance/Arm Control- the illusions of hand movement to the beat. Also being double jointed. 4. Dips/Spins- Usually the most used element, the fall with one leg into a ground level stunt. 5. Floor Performance- Using the floor as your prop.

[@kempo9jo]
