What's that dance called?
There’s a dance where one puts the arms out, ball the fists and jerks around so the arms are on the opposite side of the body, and then rotates the upper body one way and the arms the other while standing still. An example of someone doing it is at the end of this commercial.
I can do this dance, but I don’t know what it’s called.

Your link doesn’t work. :(
^exactly my thoughts.
I can’t quite imagine any dance I have ever seen from your description..
The Asian woman? She’s doing the monkey.
None of those dances really matched your description though…
I think she means the guy at the very end…
doing the circle thing with his arms in front of him?
I don’t think it has a name.. :/
But that’s just um spinning. It isn’t a dance.
No, the white guy at the end in the red shirt and greeny jacket.
Hahaha. If it was just the hips, I would say the “Hula”, but with the arms I call that the “jock dance”. I’ve only ever seen cocky guys do that…
Can we make up our own name?
Um yeah, he’s really just doing a stationary swagger.
Aw, I’m disappointed. I thought there was a name. :|
But I can do it in both directions!
It’s just a cocky attitude, like you said. Set to music and arms bopping about.
Oh, it IS the cabbage patch! and this guy’s a scream!
It is a bad rendition of the cabbage patch, but it is definitely the cabbage patch.
Wow. Totally better name than my “Jock Dance”.
Really, I should have known that.
I really don’t think it qualifies. He’s not moving his arms around in a circle, both arms are independent. It is not the cabbage patch.
booooo asmonet beat me to that link :P
LOVE the Farmer Bill link.
asmonet: Well we all know white men can’t dance.
That IS a white man’s dance. Unfortunately, it’s not the cabbage patch.
It is a white man dance but the black man perfected it
Silly asmonet… the Cabbage Patch isn’t a white man’s dance, it’ a dolls dance ;)
@critter1982 – You know what’s funny? A nuclear engineer from Winnipeg taught me this dance in college. And could he move, boy. Hoo! I knew him and he graduated when I was dating a different guy and left before I learned what other moves he had. Dammit!
@aprilsimnel: That’s sad. I’m sure he had tons of other moves like the lawnmower, the shopping cart, the row boat, the sprinkler, pretty much any dance starting with the….....:)
oh my god, the break dance dvd video april linked to was so hilarious! everyone watch it if you haven’t, it is the funniest thing ever
wow, i had no idea the “hell yeah – i win – you lose” dance had a name!
I know Farmer Bill, he went to my high school. One time he tried to dance around during lunch and this guy did the cabbage patch on his face. (true story)
Definately the cabbage patch
@tennesseejac That’s hilarious. Maybe that’s where he learned the Cabbage?
@tennesseejac – I watched that booty dance one of his and I’m speechless.
BTW, you guys, thanks for helping me with what that dance is called.
its the cabbage patch performed very badly but its definately the cabbage patch
