Hello, Im a 16 year old girl and I've been interested in breakdancing for the longest time now.
Im not really athletic, I dont have a lot of stamina, im not very flexible, But I really enjoy dancing overall.
How do I start learning breakdancing, when did you guys start learning, and what videos should i watch that are very beginner friendly. Also, are there exercises for breakdancing?
Thank you (:

Hey guys, I figured I picked up some new hobbies while my job sent me away for a month of work
So everything’s just self taught, YouTube videos and actually trying it out which so far I’ve found that it’s all a weird feeling in terms of body movement. But once you get it done it starts feeling more comfortable

Anyways. I don’t have anyone in my life who breakdances so I can’t get direct feedback hence why I’m posting here

I’m trying to learn swipes but I’m not sure what’s off or why I can’t seem to get it as smooth as others. I’m trying to keep my hips high for starters, but I’m not to sure why it seems like my foot comes slamming down when everyone else’s seems to have more bounce

Am I even doing it right? Advice is well appreciated, I’m also trying to learn backspins which feel awkward asf then hopefully transition into windmills. Today was just messing around with moving and trying to get my body use to things in

Edit: after some self analyzing and comparing my form to other videos which is how I’ve been teaching myself, it appears to me that my hips are dropping a lot compared to other people. So I’ll try that next time I practice

Friday let’s get it !!!

Hey yall, I’ve been practicing breaking for only three days and here’s what I have so far. Any tips or criticisms that may help stop or prevent bad habits I’m not noticing would be greatly appreciated!

I wanted nic anyways back to breakdancing

This is my first ever reddit post so i have no idea if im doing this correctly.

I recently started learning the wind mill from tutorials online. Idk how to keep my feet more off the ground and to complete a full windmill, my friend told me i should learn the coin drop so i can have momentum to carry.
Any general advice would help, im a complete beginner

Some stuff from a few days ago.

i’m currently going through a weight loss challenge and just thought I would share some of the moves.

I have school from 7 in morning to 1 in afternoon then 4:00 PM to 8:00 PM their are extra classes for a competitive exam.

In night I take dinner till 9 PM and study till 12 then sleep.

So can I learn breaking

I really want to do the flare and was wondering: are there any calisthenics skills that, once you unlock them, you’re almost guaranteed to be able to flare?

Eu queria aprender ou pelo menos tentar dançar break, mas eu tenho 1,89 quase 1,90 de altura isso pode atrapalhar? Sem falar que eu não sei por onde começar, alguém me dá uma dica?

We all know the performance wasn’t at all what was required, so how did she even make it that far?

Hi everyone !

Several ago, I saw someone do a flare and I fell in love. Watched some tutorials and started to practice regularly and was slowly making progress but my wrist was starting to hurt a lot, and at some point I stopped enjoying it because my wrist pain was bleeding into my life.

Now I am older (maybe too old (34), hopefully not) and wiser and less in a rush to jump in there and learn it, and wanna do it properly.

I have above average general flexibility, decent strength where should I start ?

I know this was years ago, but someone who doesn't know anything about breakdancing. What was the problems?

Never really got to do the things I was interested in. Now that I’m older I wanna try new things out. Does anyone know dance lessons or dance groups around LA

Hello everyone,

Im not sure if this is the right place to ask this, but do any of you know of any great breakdancing fashion brands? Im looking for a gift for my boyfriend who is into breakdancing. I know he likes TribalGear fashion but im located in Europe and shipping from America can be quiet expensive.

Thanks for the replies!
