what is breakdance?
Breakdance, breaking, or b-boying is a street dance style that evolved as part of the hip hop movement among African American and Latino American youths in New York City during the early 1970s. It is danced to hip hop or other music, often remixed to prolong the breaks. One who practices the style is a break-dancer, breaker, b-boy or b-girl.
The term "breakdancing" is contentious among practitioners who believe it was invented by mass media to exploit the movement. "Breakdancer" may even be used disparagingly to refer to those who learned the dance for personal gain rather than commitment to the culture. Many pioneers and prominent figures prefer to call it "b-boying"or "breaking." definition copied from wikipedia.
I started my first step in breakdance since im form2.. what makes me feel lik learning breakdance?
Its actually come from my classmate.. before i dancing, there r few guys in my class were practicing on breakdance who were wai loon, jackson, munho, steven and pook.. there r actually few more guys from other class lik wei jian and weisoon.. i start learning is when pook called me to dance.. and he asked me to learn some basic lik handstand and freeze..
