Start with toprock. Should be easy for you though. [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XZHszfU65Es[/media] You don't have to get them all down so soon. For starters get down the kick step and hip twist. With that you got your foundation for toprock. Also there is this other step that I don't know the name of. I'll find a video sometime with it. Anyway, learn the kick step and hip twist. Since you are already a dancer, just add onto that with your own moves. After that you move onto freezes and downrock. Freezes [url]http://www.bboy.org/forums/freezes/70859-foundational-freezes.html[/url] I recommend Turtle and Baby first. Baby Freeze Tutorial [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p7PIxvUcwQs[/media]

I can nearly do the cricket too :D
I'm getting my babymills! :D
Fuck. Rago and Citrus are already at my level, if not better in breaking. [editline]23rd May 2011[/editline] I haven't even attempted crickets.
haha i started bboying ages ago, i thought facepunchers doesn't like bboys so i didn't make a thread about it.
Oh I only got 1 year. I think I am progressing at an average rate, with in my opinion good toprock and downrock. Everything else needs work though.
You should always focus on your foundation for the first year, DO NOT go straight into powermoves because your dance will lack style and originality.
Yeah that's what I've began to realize. Except my friend who got me into the breaking. He can do windmills, crickets, and some other pretty nice stuff even though he only started a couple months before me. I have to say though he needs to work on toprock haha. [editline]23rd May 2011[/editline] He's on the forum by the way.
well lets not start the Style vs Power argument here :P but if you really wanna start powering start with crickets because it'll strengthen your wrist and core muscles, which will prepare you for airflares etc.. Edit: Pageking! [img]http://filesmelt.com/dl/183460_10150116887271698_836711697_6293064_6661701_n.jpg[/img] Here is my pike, sorry for the crap quality.
Nah, over summer this is my plan: Windmill(s) (prolly not gonna get continuous) Bunch of freezes -Side chair -make some of my own up -shoulder Gonna pick up a lot of different footwork -slides -7 step -3 step (lost it) -applejacks What I'm gonna improve: backspins (want to get the fast and long ones, need to work on form for that haha) footwork (combos and that crap, not gonna make actual sets but just to get used to flowing through the music) [editline]23rd May 2011[/editline] Also I posted a video a page ago [url]http://www.facepunch.com/threads/1086450-B-boy?p=29859926&viewfull=1#post29859926[/url]
Tips on windmills: Always try to get your 2nd mill even though you have an ugly 1st, it'll start self polishing as you go. Is all about muscle memory.
I wanna start on powermoves since I built lots of strength :O
That's exactly what my friend said. That and momentum. [editline]23rd May 2011[/editline] [QUOTE=Rago;30007051]I wanna start on powermoves since I built lots of strength :O[/QUOTE] Learn airflares [editline]23rd May 2011[/editline] :v: [editline]23rd May 2011[/editline] Where you from Citrus?
I'm from Hong Kong. :D Moving back to Canada in 3 weeks!
Cool. Anyways, should we move the breaking stuff to the Bboy thread or just keep it here?
Well i've read the OP and apparently this thread is about contemp dance so uh i don't really mind
Yeah just keep it here. Anyways, on the Style vs Power argument. There really shouldn't be any sort of argument for that, some people's style is power. It's just that people dance differently. Anyways, gonna take History exam in a few minutes. My first exam wasn't even an exam which is why I'm on Facepunch still. After I get out today I'm gonna practice :buddy:
Okay bro, seeya soon!

Lol rago yeah he can't do a backflip either. I don't personally know any person who can backflip and be there to help me. And the video, I've heard people pop to that song a million times, but anyway you're good lol I would do one too but I haven't done anything in ages so I'd just look like flacid jell-o. On to the breakdancing, I haven't done much in these weeks and I guess that's it
I was joking about the airflares

And for everything else just grow some balls and do it :D

Yeah. I'll just stay turfing and occasionally popping. :ohdear:
