Break Dancing, by Seung Up

Breaking dancing is my favorite dance in the world. You have heard about break dancing, but have you ever wondered about what break dancing really is? Break dancing was invented by black men. In the 1970s, DJs played musical breaks between music again and again. When the DJ repeated the same musical break, many dancers danced to it, and a lot of people loved it. It became the beginning of break dancing. If you want to learn how to break dance, you should know the power move, the style move, and the freeze.

First, to learn to break dance, you should know about the power move. The power move is called the flower of break dancing because the power move is very magnificent. Have you ever seen someone spin on their head or dance upside down with a spin? People call that the power move. To do the power move, the dancer needs strong arms and good balance. If you want to do the power move very well, you should practice. Also, there are many kinds of power moves: Baby, Tomas, Head-spin, Back-spin, Nineteen-ninety, Wind-mil, and Air-track. Break dancing is mostly spinning skills. All break dancing skills are very hard, so it is very difficult to learn all of them. You should practice just one, and then after you learn it, practice another.

Second, you should know about the style move when you practice break dancing. In 1994, the style move was one step in the power move, but many dancers love this part. In 1995, some dancers practiced only this part, and the part separated from the power move. The style move has just two basic steps, because the dancers are supposed to dance in their own style. After you have mastered the basic skills, you can practice your own steps. The dancer usually uses his feet to move quickly, and he does some stylish pose or step with his feet. The style move dancer also needs a lot of practice and to have dance sense. It is very hard, but it also has much value for the dancer.

Finally, when you practice break dancing, you should know the freeze. The freeze is used to stop in the middle of break dancing. In other words, dancers freeze, or stop, during the power move and style move. When dancers freeze, they make a magnificent pose when they do the power move or style move. Today, the freeze is not exactly one part of break dancing, but it will become one of the parts of break dancing. To do the freeze, the dancer needs strong arms because almost all freeze skills are upside down or standing without feet. The freeze is a very nice part in break dancing.

In conclusion, break dancing has a lot of charm and is magnificent. Of course, break dancing is difficult to learn, but it also has so much value. To learn to break dance, you need to know three things. First, you should know about the power move, which requires good balance. Second, you should know about the style move, which requires good dance sense. At last, you should know about the freeze, which requires strong arms. When you practice break dancing, it will be very hard, but if you practice with some effort, you can do it.
