Sandra, you attended your first lesson right, so I taught you to point how I teach point, point at the camera lah. It’s really like that! So if I tell you to point, point. So in Locking, a clap is a clap, the move is called a clap. So if I tell you to clap, then you will clap. In fact, a lot of the steps are exactly what they look like. It’s very kid friendly because the steps inherently are very simple, they are not complicated. I think the youngest Locker in Singapore I’ve seen is between 4 to 6-years-old. No age limit required to start Locking, none. It was a 2 step movement with up and down, and he forgot what to do after going down! Then everyone else was like, “That’s fresh! Okay that’s cool, what do you call that?” “The Lock.” The birth of Locking. And he screwed up the most simple step in the world and that birthed Locking. Don Campbell, the creator of Locking, may he rest in power always, he was not a dancer. Can everybody Lock? Is there an age limit? Do you need a background? How do you even start if you want to know more about Locking?īryan: Firstly, fun fact about Locking: it is a dance style, but it was created by a non-Dancer. Sandra! Yay! So actually I’m really really lucky to have met Bryan, because also not too long ago it was also my first time trying Locking! And I think a lot of people have the same questions as I do.

Since then it’s been teacher after teacher, lesson after lesson, showcase after showcase, and then I’m here at Free Movement!
Until I went to Funk Movement, then I met Winston Cheong my first Locking teacher. So like everyone else, I went on YouTube for tutorials, couldn’t find any decent ones, but I kind of copied moves here and there.
I was like, how can 2 people look like they are exactly the same person? Hilty & Bosch they wore exactly the same things, they are similar built Japanese guys, their locking is so coordinated, I was blown away, it was so beautiful. I was exposed to this 2005 video called Battle Of The Year: Hilty & Bosch featuring Co-Thkoo. “oh, okay hor, go lah, it’s good for you what!” I was like, okay I’m going to do it. And I suddenly asked my mom, “Ma I want to join dance.” She gave me this look. sounds grim right? What happened was I entered CJC, totally never danced a day before in my whole life, then so happened it was the year he released This Is It: The Comeback Tour and everything. So, do you want to tell us more about your background as a dancer and in Locking?īryan: I started dancing the year that Michael Jackson passed away. and see if he can actually share more insights about Locking. There are just some questions that I know a lot of people ask a lot and I do too. I’m very very blessed that Bryan is actually able to come here and share more about Locking. So Bryan is actually teaching Locking in our Free Movement Dance Studio. So today we are actually going to talk about this topic, which is on Locking as a dance form. Sandra: So today we have Bryan Kang who is a Locker, and my name is Sandra. Hi everyone! Welcome to Free Movement’s YouTube channel.
