Here's a basic one i think.

U step back with ur rite foot and yank ur rite arm as ur about to punch someone.

Make slight motion with ur rite foot moving back and punch, do ne attack while bending ur left knee.

Then step forward it ur rite legand put kick ur left leg backwards while ur both arms are open. Ur chest is facing forward.

Then bend ur rite knee and kick forward this time with ur left leg and cross ur arms then sit down.

U get up repeating the same thing doing different attacks or blocks.

Well... I think this is like my first guide or something tell me if I missed something or If it sux.

aight all uprocking is pretending to fight and dancing at the same time. so you can do asmuch stuff as you want. normally you usally stick mostly with punches and blocks like in a real fight.. but its also important to change things up alot to make it very entertaining.. use taunting (like taking their hat and put it on your head or something) kicks, basically any fighting style you know and adding the funk to it.


but its not all fighting. its dancing too so incorprate your toprock into it... this is what im about to explain is prolly the most important part in uprock. in uprocking you have to stay on beat because you go down (bend your knees and dip down you know wut i mean) on every 2 beats in the measure... so its like:

1. bend down 2. fight 3. bend down 4. fight

but bending down doesnt have to take the whole beat... so when you uprock you shouldnt spend half the time bending down.. and practice everything all together and on beat so when you uprock against someone your movements will be real natural making it easier for you to bend down when its time..


hope that helps... peace!

ure basically doing dance/fighting movements to the beat...the dance is mostly a fight type dance where u jump then go down then jump...u have many fighting hand movements...like punches and kicks...etc.

ill give u the nicest idea...find the beat, hit it. no matter what u do its ur own style, hit the beat.




Dont bite the hand that feeds u, eventually everyone helping u will get annoyed...jesus.

Beginners giving beginners tips without understanding what they are saying is probally one of the worst ways to spread KNOWLEDGE.....which is the key to anything in life.

I can give you the steps to do basic toprock in a few days. In fact, as Anubius said, you should just move and dance as you want, but actually there are a few basic movements.
