i think fresno will do it. The crowd will go crazy. WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOT!

keep doing the fresno, but once in while you'll have to change your arm angles otherwise the crowd will get a bit bored.

^?? where does fresno go into footwork??...

mmkay footwork: im not going to give u a spooning, but u should be playing around with variations of the heeltoe concept in order to get footwork better. Stuff like making ur feet travel like " \ / \ / \ / " as well as glides, and weight transfers such as leans.

Look up "Crip walking" (yes i am going to say that), and look up the V variations as well as gliding variations (remember to think of gliding as a style/conceptual idea that is supposed to MAKE SENSE WITH THE MUSIC!!!!, and not just some tool that says "HEY BABY LOOK AT ME"

Good luck

psh, noob. Fresno goes everywhere into footwork. Fresno is the essence of footwork. Fresno IS footwork. Fresno 4 life.

Btw DONT look up "Crip walking" look up "Breakdancing" it will be much more beneficial.

Seriously: You dont need cripwalking for footwork. I cant be stuffed fully explaining it but footwork is basically dancing while using your feet and positioning them, weight transfer, spins. Footwork is how you use the floor.

try dancing with just the legs. keep your arms by your side and try to make your dancing look interesting with just the legs

try getting down SLOWLY, and force yourself NOT to move anything in your upper-body. hell, cross your arms if you want to, but don't move your upperbody. you'll end up doing SOMETHING involving your leg-work. just see what comes out, and see if you like it. if you would like to, you can make a video, put it in the video clips section, and ask for critiques on your leg-work or foot-work.

benlibl: Plz dont make me destroy you.

Get leg and hip rolls as clean as possible and make them flow. Try not to be stationary, facing one direction.

4 years I'd like to see a video or something of you before I can give any real constructive criticism. Not any real reason except that at 4 years you should be able to pinpoint your own flaws and figure out how to fix them yourself.

Gauge your level is what I mean. Footwork is complicated, so it depends on your style.
