Jeff,

Hey man, hope you're good. We meet at UMass, on the same panel and what not.

This dance is called Dabke, a step dance, that is very reminiscent of hip-hop. It takes different forms in different countries, but in some places it resembles c-walking.

there are some good and bad videos on youtube.

keep writing!
