Everything is sooo far haha =P I went to the sessions in Surrey, they were pretty good and friendly there. I just recovered from a thumb injury so I'm ready to rock. Are their any other places to practice d/t?

yeah i heard about that area too... where is it in granville island exactly?

Shiit, you guys need to head down to Coqutilam or PoCo LOL. Too lazy to get my ass on a bus and head down to Vanc.

BRiGHTDoWN. · 07-17-2008, 12:56 PM

Well on the Coquitlam thread, our closest is Guildford Rec Center =P

However I'm also in Coquitlam too if you're still down for an in-town session.

milkshot · 07-17-2008, 04:31 PM

Haha, dope to find a bboyer in Coquitlam. You go to Fox man?

BRiGHTDoWN. · 07-17-2008, 08:50 PM

I don't haha, I'm originally not from here, there's only a few things and places I know, so I'm not familiar with "Fox".

milkshot · 07-18-2008, 12:51 AM

Yeah, I myself came just 2 years ago to Poco/Coquitlam so I know a bit of the place. If you need to know where something is just ask, I might be able to help out.

Fox is Terry Fox, a high school near Poco (but your way too old to still be attending high school haha).

There's actually a fairly close (compared to driving out to freakin' Surrey) place where you can bboy. It's called 'Club Aviva' if you google it they have a site so you can find out their address, it in Lougheed if I'm not mistaken. Don't know if alot of breakers go down there but if you ever interested in going let me know.

BRiGHTDoWN. · 07-18-2008, 02:17 AM

Oh haha, nope, completed my schooling back in Ontario (home). I'll give that place a look, though I'm trying to find a suitable place to b-boy, if not... just buy a piece of vinyl flooring and go to a park.

bboymovement · 07-18-2008, 02:23 AM

i guess i've found a nice place in toronto to bboy but hmm vancouver they hold alota events there so there should be quite alotta breakers you could session and what not with

BRiGHTDoWN. · 07-18-2008, 02:27 AM

Well, we are aware of others are where they practice. I do make the effort and check em out when I have the time, there's alot of b-boys/girls here and hella wicked =) But we just want to save the pocket change and stay "home", if that makes sense haha >.<

Hey I'm looking to learn and I live in the Vancouver area. I haven't tried bboying but I definitely want to learn. Does anyone know where I can do so?

Miss-Silly · 11-03-2008, 06:17 PM

Wow i haven'tchecked this thread in ages!

Harbour Dance has breakdance lessons, i was going to them on Sunday afternoons. The studio is on Robson right down from the Orpheum. But i live in mission so it's a b*tch to drive every weekend when i'm busy. But i seriously need to upgrade my skills for competing in fitness (where we steal moves from breakdance, gymnastics, etc).

If there is anyone who wants to teach closer to mission, def pm me ;-P
