Vogueing

Voguing is a unique dance style that emerged from the LGBTQ+ ballroom culture, characterized by expressive, stylized movements that mimic poses, fashion poses, and frames from high-fashion modeling. It involves precise, angular movements, dramatic poses, fluid arm and hand gestures, and often incorporates elements like exaggerated facial expressions. The dance emphasizes individuality, creativity, and self-expression, serving both as a performance art and a way to celebrate identity. Popularized in the 1980s, voguing has gained mainstream recognition through music videos and documentaries, symbolizing resilience, empowerment, and artistic innovation within the community.
