What does the “Jumpstyle” meme mean?

Where does the “Jumpstyle” meme come from?

Originating in Belgian and Dutch club scenes between the late 1990s and the 2000s, Jumpstyle transitioned to online virality as amateur video sharing took off. Demonstration clips started appearing on YouTube in July 2006, followed by an Urban Dictionary definition in June 2007. The movement was further amplified by popular uploads that year, such as a humorous tutorial referencing Jan Peter Balkenende on Google Video and a dance performance by Jumpforce on YouTube, with no single individual credited for the overall trend.
