“Time To Jack”

In the late 80's, Chip E told the world it was "Time to Jack."  Jacking was a term coined in Chicago for waist-centric launch and recovery dance of house.  The Jack represents the control factor in house dance, manipulating the energy by gathering it on the snare and releasing it on the high hat.  

 

It is a playful dance that allows for both bold and discreet movement, in both large and small spaces.  The dance uses the entire body, not just the feet.  Whether fast or slow, on the floor or in the air, lounge or club, the Jack is the foundation.
