Yeah. I’m a gymnast, but also a professional circus artists and street performer, and lemme tell you, breakdancers are on another level. I grew up in a padded room, these kids grew up on concrete MAYBE with a piece of cardboard, but DEFINITELY with a lot of road rash. Haha. I do gotta say though, the ballet dancer in me appreciates that gymnasts automatically point their toes. That’s one thing we’ve got on break dancers. 😂 But seriously, everyone that does either has thrill issues and is made out of some next level sh*t. 😸💖🤸♂️

Pointing is possible but not a technique consideration as oftentimes the flexed foot adds one more shape dynamic to work with for more tut or foot worked based dancers. But i havent been as involved in the scene for a few years to know if it's changed. If I do recall correctly... Airflares are one where it started on the breaking side and moved to gymnastics as opposed to a lot of other moves.

"Alyssa Blair" I have nothing on these athletic people but in the past I trained hard to run a marathon under 4 hours and not only did that require training in running but doing things like stretching and other exercises. I know a lot of people would laugh at that since it is nothing significant as far as athletic ability , but it takes discipline and dedication to just get up and work out and try to improve, and often work out when you are not feeling well and also find time to live the rest of your life. It physically hurts , it is tiring and the routines do get dull and dreadful. So I can imagine how training to do such high level stunts must be really difficult. But yes it does feel good to be able to run miles without getting winded when a lot of people cannot do it at all. But also after a certain amount of years your body just cannot take it any more.

I’m not a gymnast or break dancer. The balance, flexibility and strength required of a world class gymnast boggle my mind. An argument could be made that gymnasts are the best athletes in the world. But one thing that has impressed me about break dancers is that they wear shoes. These moves are hard enough without adding weight to your feet. Their form won’t get them a perfect score from a gymnastics judge, but break dancers are strong as sh*t beasts. In shoes.

Yeah. I’m a gymnast, but also a professional circus artists and street performer, and lemme tell you, breakdancers are on another level. I grew up in a padded room, these kids grew up on concrete MAYBE with a piece of cardboard, but DEFINITELY with a lot of road rash. Haha. I do gotta say though, the ballet dancer in me appreciates that gymnasts automatically point their toes. That’s one thing we’ve got on break dancers. 😂 But seriously, everyone that does either has thrill issues and is made out of some next level sh*t. 😸💖🤸♂️

Pointing is possible but not a technique consideration as oftentimes the flexed foot adds one more shape dynamic to work with for more tut or foot worked based dancers. But i havent been as involved in the scene for a few years to know if it's changed. If I do recall correctly... Airflares are one where it started on the breaking side and moved to gymnastics as opposed to a lot of other moves.

"Alyssa Blair" I have nothing on these athletic people but in the past I trained hard to run a marathon under 4 hours and not only did that require training in running but doing things like stretching and other exercises. I know a lot of people would laugh at that since it is nothing significant as far as athletic ability , but it takes discipline and dedication to just get up and work out and try to improve, and often work out when you are not feeling well and also find time to live the rest of your life. It physically hurts , it is tiring and the routines do get dull and dreadful. So I can imagine how training to do such high level stunts must be really difficult. But yes it does feel good to be able to run miles without getting winded when a lot of people cannot do it at all. But also after a certain amount of years your body just cannot take it any more.

I’m not a gymnast or break dancer. The balance, flexibility and strength required of a world class gymnast boggle my mind. An argument could be made that gymnasts are the best athletes in the world. But one thing that has impressed me about break dancers is that they wear shoes. These moves are hard enough without adding weight to your feet. Their form won’t get them a perfect score from a gymnastics judge, but break dancers are strong as sh*t beasts. In shoes.

No it's not lol. Those are routines to pre-deterrmined music, breaking is freestyle and will vary depending on who you're battling (call and response) and the music being played.
Fun fact about the "levitating" move, it was made by Bboy Junior, he can do this, first of because of his incredible core strength, but also because of a syndrom he has called poliomyelitis, basically his right leg is very weak, if you watch his battle you can see him limping. And so he turned his condition into a strength and his well known for is moves that kind of defy the laws of physics

I really love how much respect these videos show when they compare one discipline to another, it's never "look how much better/stronger we are," it's always just with a view of "aren't these variations between disciplines interesting?"
I love your attitude towards other sports and variations of your own. Not shade, not saying that everything but what you do is weak, but actually trying everything and admitting when it's too hard for you. You have actual, genuine respect for other athletes and how hard they must have worked to achieve even "basic" skills in their chosen sport, and I love to see you exploring those sports.

It's not comparable. I've done both. Flare in BD is mostly about keeping the pelvis up as possible while swinging your legs(sometimes it can result that the pelvis working instead of the legs). Flare in GM is more about just swinging your legs, and that's it.

Unusual request but could you try to do off ice figure skating jumps? A lot of the mechanics are similar to twists except you don’t flip and land on one foot.
Also want to add that most Break dancers learn these moves in the street. In concrete floors that can be fatal when injured. They are literally built differently.
