At an average pace (meaning not practicing 10 hours a day every day), it'll take you about 2 years to really get into things and start developing your stuff well. Maybe a little faster if your environment has a strong environment.

If you practice hard you'll get your move techniques down pretty fast .. the hard part is being able to have them down to the point where you can pull them out of your ass at any given moment from any other move. It's easy to be able to do something on demand by itself, but it's a lil harder to be completely comfortable with it .. because when you're just thinking about doing a move, you're focusing all your attention on that move. When you want to flow, you have to think about what's going on n go to the music, so you have to be able to go from one thing to another without even thinking.

When you really start to get that feeling of you can just dance, be funky, and have fun and feel like you don't have to mentally deadlock on each part of your throwdown, you're getting somewhere.
