Krump: A Way of Life         

The subject of krump is often looked over as just people having spasms, or acting silly. Most people, however, don’t actually know why people do this type of dancing. Krumping originated in California but was passed down from Africa’s praise dances. Krumping is the art of giving praise and thanks to anything good. You can give praise to anything, but in most cases krumping is usually connected with giving praise to the lord. It also celebrates the survival of California Street Life; how young people survive without drugs, violence, etc. We think making this website it will give people a better view of why people krump and what it exactly represent in terms of providing positive influence for the community.
