Salsa vs Breakdancing

[Roy]

Ok, so I want to do something new and meet some new people and of course, women . . .
Im interested in learning salsa or breakdancing but can't decide which one...

Which one do you guys suggest?

 

[Mistic]

salsa for sure

I preffer breakdancing because I have been breaking for over 2 years now. In my opinion breakdancing takes much more skill and strenght. But its peoples opinion you know I think spinning on your head, doing flares and some crazy footwork and upwork is much more better than salsa. By the way " Breaking " is combining all the elements of dancing, hell you can do salsa or even some ballet moves while breaking!!! That's why I like it so much better!

Do Salsa. 99% of the time there will be more girls then guys. You will always have a girl partner to dance with.

Salsa is MUCH harder than it looks. It's very easy to tell when a guys good and when he's a n00b like me Salsa when done right can look very sexy. Don't forget that you're almost in constant contact with the woman.

I'm not trying to knock breaking at all, but if you want to meet women you want to do a couples dance. I may be wrong but I almost never see women doing break dancing.

I agree salsa is the number 1 way to go if you want to meet women. But for me its not about that... its for the love and challenge of dancing. !

Do breakdancing if you want to meet guys and tomboys.

Do salsa if you want to meet women.

Do both if you love dancing.

 

[Inquisitus]

For the love of the dance.

If you're doing it just to meet new women , don't do it. If you like salsa , go for it. There are a lot of womens on clubs more willing to fvck you than in salsa classes. Just work on your game.

If you're doing it to impress others and learn to dance with a partner, then do salsa. If you want to show boat and increase your personl physic then b-boy. I've done both now (It's good to live in the south west!!) and while I like being able to salsa with those spicy latina mommies with confidence, being a b boy with my friends is a ton more competative and that's gradifying in it's own right.

Break dancing is very competative boss. Being able to double air flare takes much more strength then the average person can present. I couldn't do a one handed hand stand a year ago until I started rocking with my crew.

Don't hate.

You can teach yourself. I learned on my own, but I also had to do different strength training excercises. I worked out on my own prior, typical work out weights and cardio, but doing something like P90X or any other hybrid style workout is what will get you there. Combo stretching, low weights with high reps and tons of cardio and all you'll need will be a few you tube videos to b boy like a pro.

Don't listen to break dancers who say you'll never make it and it takes years to learn to dance. They're stupid, and egotistical. It took me 2 months to learn to break and I'm much better then most of the "Pros" that surround me. Might makes right, the coordination is easy but practice is what makes the difference. If you practice a lot then you'll make it no problem.

One of my closest buddies used to be a dancer for the Chicago Bulls back in the days of Michael Jordan, did shows in Las Vegas, and also did cruise ships. He lived the life. I don't do any dancing myself, but breakdancing is very physically strenous, competitive, and if you watch people "pop n lock," it's incredible what they can do. Watch this Youtube video of a competition and pay attention to the guy with a brown hat (who I think does the best).

Rocking with your crew?

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH

No man, people must do whatever makes them happy. If this is your thing, good luck to you. Dance offs are just something I find, as a traditional sportsman at least, very hard hard to take seriously is all. I mean no offense.
