I think it was an rnb music video with a bboy in it and he was going different speeds like slowmotion to fast it was sick and he was wearing sunglasses

Hello there! I've been breakdancing and have been able to put in about 2 hours a day everyday for the past 5 weeks or so. I recently participated in a local toprock thing going on in town and actually won which was awesome. I am young enough to where I could genuinely take this to a competitive level and am dedicated enough to train.

If you could provide advice in general in terms of learning (for a beginner), I would be extremely grateful. I have ran into a lot of issues with youtube videos which say, "beginner" and then proceed to show me the most complex moves I've ever seen so please remember, I really only know a decent amount of toprock (and tbh, only won the event because I finessed the few moves I knew and my opponent messed up in the final). Thank you all very much!

Currently live streaming a battle here in NYC if anyone is interested in watching/tuning in! Prelims start at 8:30pm EST and the jam goes until around midnight!

Veterans! What's something you're wish you knew in your first few years of breaking?

And/Or

What's something you knew but never actually followed through with that you wish you did (regarding discipline).

Waddup!

I'm going to create a Flare Day for my exercise schedule, a day that is entirely committed to the Flare, and I'm reaching out to y'all for some ideas.

For context, I can already do a few, but really shit flares. What sort of exercises and/or youtube videos have y'all used to improve your flares?

Flare Day will fill a 2 - 3 hour block of time and executed once per week.

Feel free to rant and write a lengthy comment, I'll read and appreciate every word of it.

Bboy.one is now Breakshops.com

Get fresh tops, spin caps, pants, floors, books, etc.
Support independent break vendors and content creators.

I am re-branding because 1) Breakshops is gender neutral, and 2) shifting focus to eCommerc

Do you sell anything or know some break entrepreneurs who do? Link me up and lets make it happen!
Black Friday sales and FSS coming up, cop some new gear and look fresh before the next jam!
Right now I recommend Storm's book, "Think Breaking," and the "Bboy Battle Book" from Bboy Academy. Also Spin Control and Panic39, always quality.

History:
I launched bboy.one about a year ago to have a new breaking forum (threw out that idea, its time has passed) and put public sessions on a map to make them easier to find. Still keeping the Break Map as a utility for the community, but will direct the website's purpose toward eCommerce, aka breakshops, to help stimulate our breakonomics.

Soliciting contributions to the map:
Right now, you can add and find sessions on the map. Please add some if you know of any, or post the info here, and I will add them~! (I 've improved the UI since last year, but it still needs work!)

Future plan:
Add mobile apps, websites, documentaries, accessories, learning resources... also functionality for users to sign up and add their own products.

Tbh I coded this all myself and am still fairly new to development, so if any other break devs want to hop on and build this out together, I can open-source it or we can collab somehow. Feedback is welcome too.

Share breakshops.com with 3 people you know who might be interested!

Thanks for reading and supporting!

Peace!

I’m 24 and I haven’t been dancing for like 10 years at this point and just recently getting back to breaking. Holy shit it’s the most physically taxing thing I’ve ever done in my life and I’m very muscular considering I’ve done calisthenics for years and recently Olympic lifting. I remember breaking as a teenager and it was so much easier because my body was so much younger. Right now I’m dragging it like a lump of heavy metal despite the muscle. I can run for miles but toprock and foot work gas me out super quickly. Re-learning windmills and swipes have been so exhausting it’s crazy. Anyone sharing the same experience so far? I know keep practicing will get me better and better physically and explosively but I just wanna express how it felt. I also feel like I’m starting again quite late as 24 and I’m just so envious of the people who started young and stuck to it and now they’re at the top of their game. I know it is a lifestyle, but I just wish I could’ve kept it up earlier in my life. It struck me how exhausting and difficult it is lol and now the more advanced power moves seem like eons away..

Hello,

So I'm looking to push my breaking further, and I'm looking for other dances, I saw some great stuff but I don't know the name
What is this called ?: https://www.instagram.com/reel/Cz6ScLjNMSk/?igsh=djlreXBrdWswZnk%3D

The year is 2002 & Lord of the floor is in full effect, Stuntman is on the floor dropping one of his signatures. Back in 1936 & Harold Childs part of the trio "The 3 Loose crews"doing almost the exact same move linking the 2 dancers through timehttps://youtu.be/nGmshEOxVfY

Im currently learning the power entry and im wondering if I could get airflares in 3 and a half months if I completely dedicated myself to it? Is it feasible and if so any tips?

Hello there! I've been breakdancing for about 3 weeks now and have really only learned the cross step and the kick side step. I am looking to build my skills from the ground up and plan on learning in the following order: Toprock, downs, downrock, freezes.

If you all could help, I am trying to find an essential list of toprocks I should learn in order. I know there is a lot of preference and style (which I do use in the two moves I know so far), but I want to know the fundamentals before moving forward. Whenever I look up any tutorials, it always pulls up some guy doing flares or other complex moves I can't even comprehend how to do yet.

If you all could simply give me your personal input or a list from most basic to most complex toprocks that a beginner should learn in order I would greatly appreciate it.

Are there any other places online where the community is active? I noticed that IG is pretty active. Or any other subs on Reddit?

Is there a definitive timeline for the history of breaking? I was watching an interview with alien ness and he says that bboys used to be called boogie boys but thats different to what crazy legs says which is that the term bboy came from bronx boys. which makes me wonder Is one more right than the other? are all the old perspectives valid/correct?

Exactly what the title says. I’ll start with the lowest payout international jam. Outbreak Europe 500 euros

Hello as a bboy and a recently new convert to muslim is breaking haram. I have heard music and breaking all together is haram but there are muslim bboys like leelou. If it is is there any way to make it halal this is a very special hobby to me
