Breakdancing is a modern dance that requires good physical fitness and coordination. Properly selected clothing plays a very important role during training.
Workout clothing consists of pants, a T-shirt or sweatshirt, and sneakers. Depending on the style you prefer, the dress requirements differ.
Top break equipment
If you are an upper break dancer, you just need to choose good sneakers that sit comfortably and comfortably on your feet, and the soles are non-slip. The only requirement for trousers is that they should not crawl under your feet, otherwise you can step on your own trouser leg and fall. Ideally, your pants should be tucked into your sneakers. A sweatshirt or T-shirt can be anything, but preferably without metal parts that can catch on to something, this will reduce the likelihood of annoying injuries.
Be sure to get good sports wristbands to avoid injuries to your wrists by keeping your joints warm and fixing your wrists, which allows you to make sharp, biting movements without risk. If you feel hot during training, you can choose shorts for yourself, but in this case, you should definitely buy regular knee pads so as not to damage the skin of the knees during parterre movements.
Power break dance and hip hop
If you are doing breakdancing with strength elements, the dress requirements are much stricter. For example, you need to choose pants in which you can sit on the twine without any problems, otherwise they will interfere with the swing of the legs. Do not buy belts with large plaques as they can cause injury. As a top, it is best to choose tight sweaters with long sleeves without zippers, laces and hoods, T-shirts that open the elbows are not suitable, since they can damage the skin of the hands. Always have a hat with you. For this type of breakdancing, it is best to buy knitted clothes that do not restrict movement.
If you are a hip hop dancer, any comfy clothes, sneakers or trainers will do. It is better to form a certain style of clothing - choose loose pants or jeans, oversized shirts, T-shirts or T-shirts. Hip-hop, which does not imply complex tricks, allows the use of various paraphernalia such as glasses, watches, chains. However, there should not be too much of it so that it does not restrict movement.
When choosing clothes for any type of breakdancing, think about whether you are going to only train in them or also perform in them. Performance clothing should be more flashy and flamboyant, but don't sacrifice comfort for that. Your confidence during the performance depends on the convenience and comfort of your clothes.
