Breakin' Good
This DVD is a great way to learn some moves and start breakin'. Got it for my 11 year old nephew for Christmas - he needed a good influence, his parents dance like old folks at a wedding.
He's loving it, getting pretty good already.
The warm up is good and it's explained well. Make sure there's no pains or sprains.
The moves are broken down really clearly, so you can see what to do, start slow and build it up. Stumbling through the moves at first is proper funny, but you can see yourself getting better soon enough. The whole thing is fun and seeing what you can move on to is a great incentive.
All he needs now is a Kangol cap and a roll of lino.
Excellent content, poor teaching
I got this dvd just to learn some casual dance moves. There is no question that Jeromeskee can move, but the instructional aspect of the video is minimal. By the time the narrator has verbally explained what to do and you begin to do it, Jeromeskee has already gone onto the next step. I'm no pro dancer, but I'm also not uncoordinated either and it was frustrating to not be able to keep up at all. I'm going to break the rewind button on my dvd player pretty soon. More time could have been spent explaining in detail where to place your weight, when to shift feet, etc. rather than just showing it and not giving enough time to figure it out before already moving to the next step. Slow down! I purchased this "beginner" video thinking I would get detailed instruction, but it was moreso just a voice-over and some guy that can move way faster than I can.
