Before continuing, you may want to practice this part a few times. Jump as high as you can, using your grounded hand as support. Your other hand should be up in the air.įrom your starting position, you’re going to jump so that your legs and waist are in the air. Keep in mind that your palm be touching the ground, only your fingertips. To start, you’ll be leaning back toward the floor with your legs bent and open, waist up, and one hand on the ground. These moves are a lot of fun once you get the hang of it. Swipes are another simple B-Boy power move. just put your legs together-use your hands to pull them together in the position we just described. To do this, lie so that the middle of your spine is on the floor, and use your hands to pull your legs together. Once you get the hang of this basic motion, try with your legs closed instead of open. Your leg is going to go all the way around, like a helicopter, and you’ll use the hand of that forearm to push off the floor. At the same time as you whip your leg, your forearm is going to come down. For this example, we’ll say that your left leg is straight and the right leg bent. If you use your left hand for baiting, keep your left leg straight, and vice-versa. Which leg you keep straight depends on which hand you’ll use for baiting. You’ll begin by kind of sitting on your bum, keeping one of your legs straight and the other bent. As a beginner, you’ll probably want to learn this one first. Always land back at the starting position before doing another swipe.There are two basic backspins in B-Boy. Try doing several swipes in a row, making a wide circle around the room. Your legs should be bent and open, a little wider than hip width apart. Then, twist your right leg and left leg around so you return to the starting position, with your both feet on the floor. Once your left hand falls beside your right hand, lift off your hands and raise your right leg.Then, let your left hand fall beside your right hand. Once it reaches the left side, switch hands so your left hand is now raised in the air. Next, throw your right hand to the left in a swiping motion. Lift your right hand, supporting your weight on your legs and your left hand.
Bend over backward and place your hands on the ground so you are in a table shape, with your stomach and chest facing upward. Start on your hands and feet, with your legs bent and a little wider than hip width apart.
