I removed the notice to delete this article. House dancing is an important underground movement with a wide audience, primarily among young people in the inner city. It is connected with at least a few marginalized groups, African Americans and gay people, and as such does not receive much publicity. I did, however, provide more documentation and external links that I believe prove its notability.
House dance is connected with gay people? Now this is biased and, by the way, completely wrong. but unless you don't write this into the article, I will do you no harm. 80.120.199.87 21:15, 12 August 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Minor Fixes
I made a few grammatical corrections. Proper names capitalized, etc. It's just the teacher in me.

[edit] History
What is the basis for the assertion that House dance is "a lot older than House music"? There is no qualifying information provided and no reference. AFAIK they emerged simultaneous from the same cultural movement -- which explains their common underlying philosophy (i.e. the non-isochronous metrical foundation). Andyschm 06:22, 22 May 2007 (UTC)
