I know a few b-boys personally and let me tell you you won't be able to learn how to break by reading a website. You should go out and meet some b-boy/girls and talk to them. Tell them you're interested in learning how to break, and they should show you how and what to do. It involes a lot of upperbody strength. It's fun, and cool to do. I wish it was still in style here. It went out about a few years ago. I love watching battles.

*GASP* *CHOKE* *SPLUTTER* :)

yeah, right......each to their own I suppose... I reckon it looks real 'gay' (for want of a better word)

(Stands back and waits for all the PC police to come into the thread and harrass him about the use of the word gay in a non-homosexual way!) :)

Good luck, I'm starting up again right now......went to a few b-boy sessions last year, and I hadn't been able to make it to any this term......just find someone to show you some basics, practice those until it's second nature, start adding your own style and flair, and when you think you're out of ideas, then start working together. Train your upper body, learn you center of gravity so you can do freezes and powermoves, and contrary to what some might say, you can probably learn from a website. Moves, that is, not everything. good luck, I'm gonna shut up now. Guess I must've played too much Smash Bros Melee today. ;-)
