Locking (dance)

Other lockers Jimmy "Scoo B Doo" Foster, Greggory "Campbellock Jr." Pope, Tony "GoGo" Lewis, Fred "Mr Penguin" Berry (a.k.a.

Rerun), Leo "Fluky Luke" Williamson, Damita Jo Freeman and others also helped set the foundation for the locking dance and clothes style.

A locker may smile while performing to emphasize the comical nature of the dance; other times, a serious demeanor will be maintained to place emphasis on technique.

Other important stylistic features are waving of arms, pointing, walking stationary and grabbing and rotating the cap or hat.

Don Campbell created the original freezes, incorporating his unique rhythm and adding gestures such as points and handclaps.
