In this Absolute Beginners Breakdance course learners will learn the fundamentals of breaking. The fundamentals of breaking are: Top rocks, Go downs, Footwork, Freezes. Each class will begin with a warm up which will go for about 5 minutes. Then we'll proceed to learning the fundamental movement of the week. Each lesson will conclude with a cool down. These lessons will be self paced which allows learners to pause, practice and even rewind for better understanding. As the teacher of this course I will be breaking down each movement into steps to make it achievable for each learner. Although it is self paced, this course is interactive. Learners will be getting feedback directly from me as they send through their videos.
Learning Goals
You will know the structure of a breakdance sequence (Top rock, Go downs, Footwork and Freeze). You will have an arsenal of moves that can be used in this sequence. You will then use all the movements you have learnt to be creative!
