I am sorry my friend...But what you just showed is completely incorrect. Not only were none of those unintelligible steps completely unbalanced and incorrect, but you are leading viewers to believe that "uprock" and "toprock" which are two TOTALLY DIFFERENT DANCES are the same. It is true that both are utilized in bboying (breaking) but they are NOT the same and have completely different uses in the dance.

Uprock Break Dancing Move

Hi, I'm Austin McBride with Expert Village. Today I'm showing you how to break dance. The first key to break dancing is the up rock or top rock as it is often called. The top rock is the floor maneuvers that happen at the beginning. There just standing up generally pretty free flowing and free style according to the dancer on how you want to do it. However, there is a basic technique to how it looks and how it feels. It involves a lot of short, I'm doing it in slow motion right now, choppy steps using the arms kind of to swivel and kind of like going into circles. You certainly can use any combinations of patterns of putting your foot back and forth swiveling your upper body when you pushing it. In fact most of this is kind of how it looks. In that's the look of how we up rock or top rock as we are preparing for some more break dance maneuvers.
