Breaking history

First up, welcome to the Dancing-magazine.in  forums.

please take the time to read it.

Now - there's a few questions and misconceptions that you may have at this point, and this is totally normal. I'll try to adress some of them here.
 
Breakdancing
Okay - listen up. Most of the world know this dance as breakdancing. So you may be surprised to hear, that that isn't the name of the dance.
The dance is actually called BBOYING.

The name breakdancing was actually dreamed up by some reporter who confused the idea of dancing to the break (where a funk track is all drum) with the name of the dance - hence "breakdancing".

The dance is called bboying wether you are a boy or a girl.
BBoying = the dance
BBoy = Break Boy (a boy who dances to the break)
BGirl = Break Girl (a girl who dances to the break)


Where did bboying come from?
BBoying was created in the Bronx in New York sometime around 1973.


What do I learn first?
Okay - here's where you should start.

The basics of bboying are very important and really shouldn't be glossed over or skipped. Start off with this stuff, and you can become a better dancer quicker than you could by going straight to the harder and more impressive moves.


TOPROCK - The stand-up part of the dance. Very important. This is where you can really let loose and enjoy yourself. It's this part of the dance that you can play with the music a lot.
"If you don't toprock before you go down and do footwork, you're not really bboying."
- Popmaster Fabel (Rock Steady Crew)

If you go to the TOPROCK sub-forum, you will be able to read up more on this part of the dance.


DROPS - This gets you from your toprock, down into your footwork.
The four basic drops are:
The sweep.
The back sweep.
The kneedrop.
the corkscrew.

If you go to the DROPS sub-forum, you will be able to read up more on this part of the dance.


FOOTWORK - This is what most people know bboying as. When you are down on the floor (usually on hands and feet) doing a lot of complex looking steps.
This is probably the most creative part of the dance.

As a starter, you should learn 6step and 3step (learn them BOTH ways). Then when you have perfected them, start to move onto more technical stuff.

If you go to the FOOTWORK sub-forum, you will be able to read up more on this part of the dance.


FREEZES - This is the traditional way to finish your throwdown (a throwndown is what we call it when you visit the floor to take your turn)

The basic freezes to learn are:
Chair freeze.
Baby freeze.
Turtle freeze.
These are the most fundamental freezes and it is very important that you leanr them early on as a lot of other moves build on them.
