Koreans are one of the best people in bboying i think :P *Bboy Proto --- Yeah! Freaky Coincidence :P .. Thanks .. btw hand hops i can do like 5 then i fall out of balance dont know why :S .. shall i make a video or something ?

ah yeah its difficult but to create your own style its good to dance with other people. usually you can find groups of people where everyone is at different levels. you can learn from eachother. i guess the main thing is to just keep practicing and you'll find that you have particular habits/moves that create your own style. just keep practicing with good music and pretty soon you'll have more creative musicality/dancing to the actual music.

Yep, but ma friends that breakdance are far frm where i am :P .. like not always i can meet them, so i have to work something out by myself now !! ... but my friends always tell me .. dont learn from Youtube and try to figure out the moves and learn them UR WAY ! is wat dey r saying true ? cause i think its a bit true :P
and can u gimme some good music ?
What abt Design-s - The Spark .. is this music good ?

i just looked up that song. hey if you can dance to it.. thats great. personally i think i would have a hard time dancing to this. try like Jurassic 5 or DJ format. here's a song you could look up: Honest Expression by Binary Star or Indy 500 by Binary Star. They all have little intros that you can't dance to.. and they are slower than you are used to if you've been listening to stuff like this techno but it might help develop your style more. but again everyone has different taste in dance music these are just suggestions.

yeah thats great if you can learn moves your own way. i learned some really basic stuff from youtube when i had no one to show me where to start. but yeah learning your own moves comes from practicing a lot.

shoot thats difficult practicing by yourself.. but keep up with practicing.. and when you do get together with your friends you can show them what you have and get their opinions/suggestions for everything.

I was 14 like a month ago! but to start off you should learn six step (then all the footworks), basic toprock (indian step, kick step, side step etc...), and freezes, well thats how im learning so far and its working.

what you learn after that depends on what you want to do, if you want to focus on looking fancy with powermoves pursue those, if you want to try to make your own style and kill the beat, work on footwork and transitioning. also try to find a place where you can regularly session with other bboys...thats all i have for advice.

*edit* and i think that learning from youtube is fine, its good to learn stuff yourself but you cant learn things if you dont understand them.

I really don't like songs that drop the snare for long periods at a time like that... check out some classical hip hop tracks too, some areas of Cali are _TOO_ into funk and its WAAAAACK sorry we don't live in the 70s anymore. I want to hear something that isn't funk at least every 5 tracks...

Here's a few I'm down with









Oh and almost anything with the beat provided by DJ Premier

Bgirl-oz --- Aha! Okay i will check them as soon as i can mate! Well, can techno music be used in break dancing ? i know the beats are too fast, but is it possible? Well my friends like see me doing the stuff i know, and they tell me great keep it up ... cause wat i mastered now is the Handstand, Elbow stand (both elbows), Baby freeze, Hand hops, and stuff like that .. I'll try my best to learn them from my friends cause it would be alot easier
Bakut.Tai --- Yeah that's what im going to start doing now! Cause until now i have no footwork :P Thanks 4 da advice dude!
MaDD --- Thanks alot for the songs man! Nice choice :P

And if i learn anything new i will surely edit this post and write them down. All i ask for from you, is that, what moves should i start learning now? Footwork, Floor work, Power moves? And please name the moves that i should learn now Thanks in advance, TeknoBoi

6 step and toprock, u look like ur style is power. eitehr way you should have learned your toprock and 6 step FIRST. after you get a clean 6 step and toprock go into babylove, and CC's

Best of luck =)
