Meet teaching artist Anna Banana Freeze from the Massive Monkees crew and learn about the history of Breaking (and Hip Hop) and the basic moves: Top Rocks, Drops, and Freezes. This lesson, which dives deep into Top Rocks in particular (such as the two-step!), is great for learners of all ages, particularly youth grades K-5. This is the 1st of 4 videos in Anna's Beginning Breaking series.
