okay ignore the 1st person because, if they don't know what a b-boy is they obviously will be no help!.
1st You need confidence especially to rock the step
2nd Work on some simple footwork such as toprocking, uprock
3rd You could learn a couple of freezes ( to know about these is they are not strictly based on strength but alot on balance! I"m a female and I learned how to do a freeze on my head the first day I started)
4th Dance everytime, anywhere you get the chance!. (also on concrete - dance = pain)
5th Do handstands against the wall to learn the feeling, you will be upside down alot and you need your upper body to get stronger and to build that balance!.
6th Learn your style - Are you jagged ( maybe you'd be best at tut'n) Are you fluid!? Maybe you'd be best at pop lock'nWww@QuestionHome@Com

ok, you should first work on just easy pop and locks, then, you need to just become familiar with the underlying beat of music, (which is what you will be dancing to) also, if you want a good dance combination just do isolations starting with your head, then your shoulders then your chest and stomach moving to your hips and legs!. Five years ago, I started taking hiphop and I was 11 years old with highschoolers, because I was that good! It was so fun though, and I have learned so much, have fun with it! Good LUck!

along with all the other advice you got, it also be a really good idea to watch America's Best Dance Crew!. There are a lot of b-boy crews on the show that might give you ideas on moves to do for yourself!.
Good luck :)Www@QuestionHome@Com
