breakdance is a sub-genre of Hip Hop but yes it is the original Hip Hop!.
And to answer you're other question yes you can do at the same time!.

Hip Hop is broad!.!.!. The most familiar dancing of hip hop would be popping, locking, freestyling, etc!. Even though krumping is considered as hip hop too it didn't originate from Hip Hop culture, same with the dance style; house!.

Breakdance on the other hand the most simple way to say it is "they dance on their hands" It's a lot more athletic then "Hip Hop" even though it is the original Hip Hop dance!.

Not saying it's easy in the first place but it is definitely not as simple to pick up Breakdancing as you would with Hip Hop!.

That's why in Urban Dance festivals they usually seperate the breakdancers from the hip hop dancers!. Not only because the 'style' and 'music' they dance to is so different but because for it would usually take a year max for a someone to pick up and get the hang of hip hop musicality as for getting the hang of breakdancing!.!.!. it takes years!.

I mean you can't battle a breakdancer with someone against let's say Michael Jackson!. Their way of dance is almost different as apples and orangesWww@QuestionHome@Com

ok!.!. so if mr!. car door has been dancing for 11 years!.!. and thats the best explanation he can come up for that!.!. he better stop dancing!.!. haha

ok here we go!.!.!.

hiphop and breaking go hand in hand!.!. breaking was the first original form of any type of hiphop dancing!.!. breaking consist of toprock, footwork, and freezes!.!.

the phrase "hiphop dance" is extremely broad!.!. because breaking is a form of hiphop!.!. krumping is a form of hiphop!.!. etc!. etc!. commercial hiphop is what you see on tv!.!. of which is basically choreography!.!. and what you will see is a mixture of different hiphop styles fused together!.!.

Break dancing is more spinning around on your head, rolling around on cardboard, kinda thing!. Hip hop is more like Usher dance moves and stuff like that!. I think you could combine them!. Www@QuestionHome@Com
