Reminiscing: ‘Ol’ Skool’ street dancers

This writer mastered the “Lock” and won a good number of $25 dance contests with a variation of the dance blended seamlessly with other moves like the “Rock Steady,” “Breakdown,” “Mash Potato,” and the “James Brown,” at college fraternity and sorority gigs at UCLA, Cal State Long Beach, Cal State Northridge, the Kappa House, Sojourner Truth sorority hall, as well as the innumerable house parties (called “sets” back in the day) before street gang mayhem ruined all the fun.
