Instructions

Step 1

Stand with your feet roughly shoulder width apart, balancing evenly on both your feet. This is a good standard starting position for most breakdancing moves.
Step 2

Put both of your palms down flat on the floor in front of you. At this point you should be in a comfortable forward crouch, ready to begin the execution of the breakdance move.
Step 3

Kick out to the left with your left leg while keeping your right leg under the center of your body. This is the first movement in a circling series of steps.
Step 4

Bring your right foot over where your left foot is while your lift your arm free in order to allow passage. It's important to keep a close eye on the location of your arms so you don't get hung up.
Step 5

Continue the steps, hitting the three major points, at 90, 180 and 270 degrees from your starting point, doubling up at each point for a full six-step count. Each revolution will require these six steps.
