Kick outs

In breakdancing (b-boying), “kick outs” refer to a specific movement or transition that involves kicking the legs out while maintaining a balanced position, often during footwork sequences. This move can add style and flair to a dancer’s performance and is typically executed with precise timing and coordination.

Key aspects of kick outs include:

  • Leg Movement: The dancer kicks one or both legs out to the side or forward while keeping their body supported by their hands or another part of the body.
  • Core Engagement: Maintaining balance and control during kick outs requires strong core muscles, as the dancer needs to stabilize their body while performing the movement.
  • Transitions: Kick outs can be used as a transition between different moves or positions in a dance sequence, allowing for fluid movement and seamless choreography.
  • Style: Dancers can add their unique flair to kick outs, varying the height, angle, and speed of the kicks to enhance their individual style.

Kick outs are often incorporated into footwork patterns and can be combined with other moves, making them a versatile and expressive element in breakdancing.
