Bboy dancing progress

Bboying is tough because you will need to meet people to teach you by making you do with them. I cannot learn today because I got grounded. Oh well watching you tube videos and practising may make it better but it doesn't. I think people on the spot correcting you and teaching you to follow them and drilling yourself after following their demonstration will help you understand what to do for that dance step. For bboy now, I have only mastered 6 step and a little bit of 3 step. I still need to keep drilling because these 2 moves look very sloppy and not sharp. The rest of the footwork moves such as helicopter/coffee grinder will learn soon. I need to learn a combination of power moves/ top rock/ freezes/footwork and others. However to learn bboy well, one needs to be as fit as possible, know how to do handglides, handstands, one handed handstand, planchez(optional), headstand, freezes, kipups and rubber bands.
Learning dance requires more practice than theory. For me I have a complete guide to learn how to bboy. The different moves and the steps to get to it. It is only used as a reference. I prefer finding people and learning from them because they guide you through and ensure you know what you are doing. Breakbeats is also another genre of songs I am not clear yet so it may be tough.

Let me show you a nice video of 2 crews battling:)
