Lean forward, push down on one pedal, pull up on the other, start practicing on grass.

Its not as easy as it might seem - dont know if you have a front brake or not (though i hope you do if you are new to a fixed gear) personally i found it helpfull when learning how to skid, as it helps get your weight off the rear wheel
Here is a thread all about skid stopping

Get your crotch on the stem, tuck your toes downwards a bit and resist. It feels odd to lean so far forward at first but it helps for long flashy skids. Keep your weight further back to scrub speed off quickly.
Read the linked threads, i just did and theres tons of info in there.
And htfu of course. -
