Choppy Footwork - 11-16-2007, 03:17 AM

What suggestions do you have for making choppy footwork smoother and I get tired easily from doing a little bit footwork any advice?

I know going slower might help, but I've done it slower already, but when I go fast it just goes choppy.

All you need to do is practice it a lot more, there's no secret shortcut for getting smooth footwork.

LOL it happen to me tooo but i got pass that one and a half months ago, the secret really is, TAKE FISH PILLS FOR UR HEART LOL jk, even though it does make ur heart better lol, k heres the real tip. first just build up ur stamina by practicing more than ur use too thats all thats to help build ur tiredness out lol, go joggin or sumthing, for the choppy ness, i think u mean when u do ur footwork its looks like ur chopping cuz u hesisitate, the only way to fix it is not to think about it but let ur body memorize ur sets or routines, soo just keep practicing and eventually it ll go away , took me bout 2and a half months to get me choppy ness out lol, my problem now is sloppyness cuz of me new variations >.<(btw wooot 200 post lol)

choppy is when ya look like u look like u hesitating like uhh whats next lol than u move to another footwork or move, sloppy is when u do ur sets or footwork and it just like plain oh messy like ahhhhhh it would be better if u clean it lol, choppy just looks like move stop move stop move stop sumthing like that sloppy is bad form lol

Lol I think I'm sloppy then my friends say I'm choppy, but I know the moves and I don't hesitate when doing then unless I just learned it recently. So yeah I'm sloppy. Being sloppy makes my footwork look ugly >.< only not sloppy footwork is 6 step and coffee grinder.

I know all footwork, but like I just learned 4 step, 5 step, and 7 step recently. So those are choppy I know. Everything is just really sloppy... I think it's because I get tired easily.

lol okay cool. So, yeah I just got handglide down, but I got to use something to spin me around... and I kind of loose balance once and while, but it's all good. I want to improve my footwork the most.
