My L kick guide


Breakin' was something that society didn't know about, it was something too new for them to even understand, and because of their ignorance to it and lack of knowledge about it, they got scared, and the first thing they do when they get scared about something is to try and stop it...

lack of flexibility in hamstrings and torque your hips more and look up at your legs and extend your free arm n try to grab your legs. these 3 factors combined will get you some sexy pikes.

yea torqueing the hips is very important. think of it like a 2 legged l-kick, thats all there is about it. good tip is: practise them any way possible: from handstand, on forearm/elbow, like a one handed carthweel and stopping halfway etc. that will also bring you new variations of it
