Pimp Walk

The Pimp Walk is a stylized walking movement that was inspired by the exaggerated swagger of zoot-suited men in Harlem. Because the movement is basically a walking motion, the swaggering style of the move is the main feature: the bent over posture, the swinging of the arm, the slight crossing of the legs on each step.
