Etymology

The term 'tutting' is derived from the hand gestures and formations reminiscent of the hieroglyphics found in ancient Egyptian art, which are often associated with King Tutankhamun. The dance style began to emerge in the 1980s within the street dance community and was popularized by various television shows and music videos. It reflects the creativity of urban dancers, who use their limbs to create visually captivating forms. The unique syntax of tutting involves angular movements, and its popularity continues to grow within various dance institutions globally. The practice allows dancers to express themselves and interpret music through a series of sharp, rhythmic movements and poses.
