House music grew out of the underground dance scenes of the late 1970s and early 1980s, particularly in 𝐂𝐡𝐢𝐜𝐚𝐠𝐨 and 𝐍𝐞𝐰 𝐘𝐨𝐫𝐤, with roots in Black, Latino and queer communities. At legendary nightclubs such as the 𝐖𝐚𝐫𝐞𝐡𝐨𝐮𝐬𝐞 and 𝐌𝐮𝐬𝐢𝐜 𝐁𝐨𝐱 in Chicago, DJs like 𝐅𝐫𝐚𝐧𝐤𝐢𝐞 𝐊𝐧𝐮𝐜𝐤𝐥𝐞𝐬 and 𝐑𝐨𝐧 𝐇𝐚𝐫𝐝𝐲 creatively mixed disco, soul, funk, African music and electronic sounds, ultimately shaping what became known as house music.
Parties at 𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐋𝐨𝐟𝐭 and the legendary 𝐏𝐚𝐫𝐚𝐝𝐢𝐬𝐞 𝐆𝐚𝐫𝐚𝐠𝐞 over in New York with 𝐋𝐚𝐫𝐫𝐲 𝐋𝐞𝐯𝐚𝐧 among the DJs, helped shape the music and club culture that influenced house. Across both cities, these spaces brought people together through music and dance, creating room for community, escapism and self-expression.
As disco became increasingly commercialised, it also faced a growing backlash, with Disco Demolition Night in Chicago in 1979 being a defining moment. Disco’s spirit, however, lived on in the underground clubs and dance floors that helped give rise to house. Frankie Knuckles, also known as the Godfather of House, would later describe house music as “disco’s revenge.”

House dance is rooted in a deep connection with the music, social dancing, improvisation and the exchange between dancers. The style draws on a diverse range of influences, including capoeira, salsa, hip hop, funk dance styles and other forms of street and club dance, as dancers brought their own movements and experiences onto the dance floor.
Over time, House dance has developed a broad vocabulary of movement, ranging from intricate footwork to flowing floor movements. Yet it remains rooted in freedom to interpret the music and express yourself through movement.
