>>There has always been questions about what's the best
>>way to get into breaking, how to practice, how to
>>learn ect. I'm hoping to give all you beginners some
>>useful advice, and hopefully maybe a lot of these
>>style of questions will be answered.This doesn't teach you any moves AT ALL!!!!!!!!!!!1
>>
>>First off. How to get into breakdance.
>>======================================
>>If your going to want to get into breakdancing, make
>>sure you get into it for the right reasons, being that
>>YOU want to break, not just because everyone else is
>>or to impress someone, do it on your own terms, and
>>make sure you have patience to stick with it. Breaking
>>takes a lot of time and energy to get good at. It also
>>requires you to be reasonably fit, have good
>>coordination, balance, and flexibility. Not everyone
>>has the body type or traits for breakdancing, and
>>you'll usually figure this out within the first month
>>of breaking. If your not developing, and are caught up
>>on moves all the time you may not have what it takes,
>>or maybe your slow :P .
>>
>>2nd. Practicing and Learning.
>>===========================
>>For some reason people think that there is some EASY
>>way to learn quickly and become right away, fact is
>>there isn't. But there are some key things to ensure
>>you're going to be doing the best you can. Stretching
>>is very important, I recommend stretching at least 45
>>minutes of a day, even if you don't break that day,
>>and make sure to stretch and warm up before you break,
>>it promotes good circulation and less injuries. and
>>have a oool down period afterwards, just like any
>>other physical activity. It's also good to not over
>>exert yourself either. Breaking is a very tiring
>>activity, and shouldn't be overdone, it can lead to
>>exhaustion, strains and cramps. Take it easy. drink
>>plenty of water and make sure you are eating right.
>>When it comes to getting down to breaking and learning
>>moves, the best way to learn is through assimilation.
>>Break with people of various degrees of skills if
>>possible, they'll be willing to teach you some moves,
>>and if not you can bite them and try em yourself :P.
>>and anyone at your skill level, you can have a
>>friendly battle. and anyone lower then your skill
>>level you can teach to help improve confidence. Make
>>sure you compete in any circles, battles, ect, it
>>really helps a lot. Also try to view a lot of
>>breaking. If you don't have much braking in your area,
>>the best bet is video. Video usually gives instruction
>>while showing you what to do. Despite what people may
>>say the worst way of learning to break is reading
>>instructions. Even diagrams are kinda useless.
>>
>>3. Furthuring the Technique
>>===========================
>>Advancing your moves will always take time. So don't
>>get frustrated. Just becasue you don't get a move
>>right away don't get discouraged. Keep trying, and if
>>you can't get it, you might want to try a new move.
>>Also when breaking, make sure to develop your own
>>sense of style and technique. Create your own moves
>>and most of all, make sure you have fun.
