How do you bboy/breakdance?

Question

I've recently seen my friend bboy and totally fell in love.

I want to be a pro and i'm dedicated but i don't know where to start.

Where do I start?

get in shape?

Answer 1

its preety hard to show someone how to breakdance through the net, especially on yahoo answers.

through the net for help look on youtube and you will find for sure some videos showing good moves and tricks from the best break dancers. from amateurs and of course tips and stuff from the pro's.

i have always wanted to do it but even though i have been dancing for about 7 yrs i havent got the right parts of the body toned up yet, that absolutely have to be toned up.

arms is the most important thing because with 99% of brakedance things your whole weight is transfered to your arms.

dont rush into anything and be very carefull because it is very dangerous to do!! have fun though x good luck x

Answer 2

get into shape you will need a lot of arm strength to hold yourself up when doing freezes.  I'm a b-girl and i have been for a few years but I'm still classed as a amateur. its good to hear your dedicated because its gonna take a while. you tube is a brilliant place to search. their are tutorials and demos which help me today.  you start with something called an up rock(if you put that into you tube you get good demos) then you have your footwork and then your freezes. get yourself into shape practice handstands as they help and balance is key. good luck !

Answer 3

practice 6 step and handglide freeze those are mostly moves to start of, check on youtube.com there are tutorial you dont need to be in good shape but you cant be too fat you just need to practice a lot
