Well, I can't do it that well yet, but my advice is to just get out there and try it.

Here are a few pointers (These are things that helped me to learn, ie they might not work for you)
I like to have my front pedal a tiny bit higher than the back. Try and "Rock" your bike forward and back.
I like to keep my hands on the hood part of my bars.
DON'T CLIP IN!!! Your gonna take a foot off a lot, so you might as well be ready.
I like to brace my front leg on my top tube.
