If you don’t have access to a hard floor ( I live in an apartment with carpet) what mat would you use. I was looking at a jiu jitsu / wrestling mat but would that give enough support to practice. I am considering going to a gym and practice but everyone uses the hardwood floor so it gets to packed. What would be my best bet

Saw someone online doing this and got into breaking, want to start off with this, anything would help, thank yall.
This was right at the end of a heavy training session. My legs were tiredd, but my friend wanted to test out his 360 camera so he told me to just do a quick round. It’s 100% freestyle ,definitely felt the fatiguee in my transitions, but it’s always good to see what comes out of your head when you're too tired to overthink
How do you guys feel about training while fatigued? Does it help your flow or just mess with your form?
Hi, not long ago I've been to a battle and the prelims were in a single big cypher. I'm more of an introvert and shy person so I had a lot of trouble to get down since at least one breaker or more wanted to go into the cypher at the same time. The only time I went in, I had a bit of a burn battle with another bboy and I ended up doing my round but it was super messy (I even crashed a bit lol).
So if you are in the same situation as me, I'd love to read your tips. Thanks!
i want to learn bboying but i have no idea what to practice first. there’s so much stuff online it’s confusing. what’s the first thing i should focus on as a complete beginner?
I'm completely new to breakdancing but fascinated by it, particularly powermoves but kind of everything. I'm trying to learn the windmill (and swipes in the background) but I feel like I'm missing some fundamental part of the physics of the move because everytime (two examples here) I can't continue the spin, the best I can do is just about hold another baby freeze. Can anyone point out anything to improve - exercises would help a ton, all I'm doing is sending it having got a reasonable baby freeze previously. If it helps profile, I'm not particularly flexible but I would confidently say I have a strong core and upper body - e.g I've taught myself various handstands/kip up varations and a frontflip, I do a lot of sport. Thank you so much to anyone who replies!!
Recently Gavin from soul mavericks has come to Tokyo so decided to have a look round, get lost, drink some coffee and train!
i keep hopping on my hips.
how do i fix this?
any exercises?
What separates a b-boy who copies from one who creates? This is how breaking evolves, move by move, cipher by cipher. Every innovation in breaking starts with someone who learned the foundation and then asked "what if?

I can flip onto my stomach but then my right arm gets stuck and I can't push back onto my back.
I wanna start breakdancing, but they don't have lessons in my city, meaning I need to be self taught. I know it's common to be self taught, but I don't know how and where to start. Youtube tutorials? How did you guys start? Also, can you give me some good channels that post beginner tutorials? Thanks!
