There are various ways people express themselves in their own way of art. Some may find their craft in painting, drawing, sculpture, etc. However, few choose to express themselves freely and undoubtedly one of the most entertaining ways. I am talking about break dancers. Break dancing is a form of art coming from body expressions. It takes a lot of strength and a lot of creativity to make yourself stand out but with the right time and the right state of mind, anybody can achieve their own flavor to the mix.
Music is a big part of breaking, you have to listen to the beat and let it enter your body. Then, you let your body do the talking, you feel the music run through you and whatever comes out is how you respond to it. There is a small minority of breakers at Redwood High School but all are different in their own way.
Me personally, I love break dancing. It is my passion and I plan on doing big things with it in my future. I love being able to express my emotions in every way and when I can’t speak my mind from my mouth, I let my body do the talking. I put on a song, listen for the beat and allow the frequency take control of my body. Any kind of dancing is a good way of self expression and a beautiful form of art. Break dancing is just one that I don’t see a lot of in our community but it is something I love to see worldwide.
