Subway Breakdancers

On my way back from MoMa a couple of weekends ago a group of kids got onto the D train, and began to breakdance to a boombox.  This isn’t the norm for the subway, but I’ve definitely seen it before. 

What made it so special for me, was the fact that one of the kids couldn’t have been more than five years old.  Take a look…

Shorty is seen here in the white shirt holding onto the pole.

The older kids were teaching him how to do his moves, the kid could spin, do head stuff, some other cool arm tricks, and his only flaw…doing the butt scratch wrong.  Apparently there’s a proper way to do the butt scratch while break dancing, and he was still green behind the ears when it came to this…who knew?
