We’ve seen a 73-year-old b-boy and an 83-year-old woman doing freezes, but I have to say that this 70-year-old woman from China seems the most legit of all those.
The video, found on the Old School Scholar blog, shows more than just the gimmick of an old woman dancing. It touches on issues of culture, politics, and mutual respect between the generations in its short eight minutes. It’s framed around a pretty manufactured “battle” between the crew of old ladies and a crew of young b-boys, but we do get the pleasure of seeing the grandmas discover how to give props.
