Flare

A Flare is a breakdancing power move borrowed from gymnastics. When performing the move, a dancer spreads their legs and whips them around their body in continuous circles, using only their hands to keep them above ground. This move is often seen in men's floor routines and on the pommel horse. The below directions are for performing counterclockwise flares.
1. Start with your legs spread between two and two-and-a-half times your shoulder width, with your left foot about six inches behind your right foot.
2. Turn your body ninety degrees to the right, "cocking" your body to prepare for a spin.
3. Spin your body to the left and downward, putting your left hand six inches in front of your left foot.
4. Pushing your weight into your left arm, swing your left leg from left to right behind you, parallel to the ground, as if you were sweeping your leg behind you to kick your right ankle. This kick is the driving force of the flare, and it is important it is made with as much force as possible.

5. Before your sweeping left kick reaches your right leg, kick that leg straight up as hard as you can, as if you were trying to knee yourself in the face. Make sure that your legs are still spread and very straight. Your right kick you be strong enough so that your pelvis is horizontal with your head.
6. Swing your left leg under your right leg, pushing all your weight into your left arm.
7. As soon as you make your right kick, throw you right hand behind you, so that it is shoulder-width from and even with your other arm and you can support your weight on both hands.
8. With both legs spread in the air, lean your weight onto your right arm, and swing your right leg under your left leg as your left hand swings over your body, back to the location you first placed them in during step 3. You should now be in a push-up position with both legs spread and suspended above the air.
9. Lean back onto your left hand, swinging your left leg parallel to the ground towards your right leg, using the established momentum to carry you around the circle.
10. Continue swinging counterclockwise, alternating your balance from arm to arm as you swing your legs around you.

How To Breakdance

How to Break dance
Break dancing is fun to watch. There are many variations of the dance, and the music is loud, but the crowd just seems to enjoy and move with each movement of break dancing. Stand in front of a mirror to add the best style and to view your progression. Practice and soon you too will be dancing on the floor.


Steps
The Worm

1. Start out in a pushup position, but with your body on the floor with your arms bent.
2. Throw your legs into the air as high as you can, and as your legs fall back down, lift up your abs and roll up all the way to your chest.
3. Repeat as quickly as possible

The 6 Step

1. Get into a pushup position with legs spread to about shoulder width apart.
2. Lift your right hand and put your left leg where your right hand was (or as close as you can).
3. Bring your right leg behind your left knee and bring your right hand pointed to the sky.
4. Step your left foot out and bring your right hand back down to the floor with your back facing the floor. Both knees should be bent.
5. Step your right foot in front of your left.
6. Step your left foot away shifting your weight onto your right arm and left foot.
7. Bring your right foot under your left foot while bringing your left hand back to the ground in front of you so as to end back into the push-up position.

Baby Freeze

1. Kneel on one knee with one knee up.
2. Put your left elbow on the side of your raised knee, and your right elbow on your hip.
3. Roll onto your hands and try to stay balanced. Your weight should be transferred to around your hands/elbows.

Turtle Freeze

1. Start on both knees.
2. Put your left elbow into your left hip.
3. Lean forward onto your left arm (beginners should keep your back straight so as to get a feel for the balance and slight pain associated with this move). Use your right hand for balance and rest your head on the ground.
4. Add style.


Turtle Move

1. Start on both knees.
2. Put your left elbow into your left hip.
3. Lean forward onto your left arm with your back straight (eventually you want your knees bent a little). Do not lean your head on the ground.
4. Reach your right hand out next to your head more or less and pull your body to your right elbow and shift your weight onto your right hip.
5. Bring your left elbow back to your left hip.
6. Go back to the beginning.


Swipes

1. Start on all fours, facing the ground.
2. Straighten up your body.
3. Bend one leg and keep the other straight in the air.
4. Move your hands to one side (and move your body from the waist up).
5. Jump with the bent leg and swing the other.
6. Turn back into the starting position.


Coffee Grinder

1. Put one leg bent and the other straight with your hands on the floor.
2. Swing your straight leg around underneath your bent leg and your hands.
3. Keep spinning until you're done, then put your legs together and spin on your butt until you stop.


The Jackhammer

1. You must learn to master the crab, without switching arms that way you can balance on your hands only.
2. Once the crab is mastered, try to balance on one hand.
3. After you can balance on one hand, put something in between your elbow and body which allows you to spin.
4. From there bounce slightly or spin your hands to move your body.
5. This will take lots of practice and persistence but when finished it looks amazing.


The Snake

1. Start out of the circle. For this trick, you'll need a prop - a rubber snake. It may sound strange but if you can pull it off, the trick looks great. If you're in a battle, you can use the snake to fend off enemies. *hint* the best snakes can be found at Disneyland/World.
2. After you start the song (Rocket by Herbie Hancock is a good one for this) begin to enter the break dance circle by doing some simple footwork.
3. Have another member of your team throw the snake across your path and as part of your routine, hop over it.
4. Make sure you keep an eye on the rubber snake - if you're on the opposing team, and you're battling, pick the snake up, swing it around, and slap the breaker in the chest with it.
5. Remember - have fun: that's what breakin's all about.


Tips

1. For the freeze: Rest your head on the ground when you get started; soon you'll be able to hold yourself up on your arms.
2. Crabs: Should be done quickly. This will help with the balance issue and eventually will allow you to do things like windmills.
3. Clothing: wear thick clothes to protect from injury.
4. Practice on mats or blankets to start.

Windmill Tutorial

1. Swing underneath. Your legs should look like a "V" in front of you now. Now both of your hands are behind you and at this point you're leaning back. Swing your right leg hard up and let your left leg swing underneath, your right hand should be off the ground too. Now swing your legs up as hard as you can behind you and put your right hand back where it was and lean forward, and repeat.
2. Practice windmills. It's all about leverage. For a beginner, start on your butt. Swing your right leg to the right and then in a large circle back towards the left. Keep pulling with this leg, while throwing your right leg to the left in one way shape or form performing 2 dance moves to return to the initial position, such as a step, then a coffee grinder (leg swipe).
3. Start doing this on grass or on mats. Most people jump forward, but you need to jump up tuck your knees into your stomach and swing forward.
• Be strong, practice, and be careful.
• Placing your hands close together at the back would help in the flare.

Warnings
• You can get nasty bruises all over if you don't lean clean on your back in windmill rotations, not to mention bash your tail bone during flares. Be careful not to go on your head out of a windmill by accident, seeing as that may be too advanced for you, and if your neck is under developed, it will definitely hurt.
• Stop if it hurts. That means you're doing it wrong, or you are not ready to be doing that many consecutive moves yet. You also risk further injury if you keep persisting. Take a rest, and remember to always stretch before doing any move.
