stop 'n go - 12-25-2005, 05:02 PM

I was wondering if anyone can help me out with this move... I get the basic movement, but I dont know how to do it on beat. I dont get the rhythm of it.

you got hands up, punch, twist, then front foot pivots once, both foots pivots once then back to the front? this is the basic movement right?

I just dont know how to put it on beat.

Thanks to anyone that can help,

ssswift.

Ive seen EB Skeeter Rabbits video, Suga Pops clip and Licorice LLoyds Tute.

Which one is the best to follow? I think its the speed that messes me up, cos when i practice to something slower, like hiphop beats as opposed to electrofunk its alot easier to keep in time.

also the foot pivot is tricky... Also do you know the origin of this move??

I'd recommend Gemini's instructional of two different stop and go's from 'Hip-Hop Dance School' volume 1 - he teaches it really well

You can buy the DVD from here:

I was wondering, how do you hit the beat on the stop and go?

This is how I do it:
1) Up
2) Punch with right, step back with right and move hip to right
3) Move hip to left, swing arms to right
&) Move hip to right, swing arms to left
4) Swing left arm outwards to left and turn towards origianl position

Are there other ways of doing the basic move?

To me it's all the same basic movement described above, it's just about the kind of funky flavor you add to it.

for me I "up" on on the down beat and punch on the 2nd and fourth beats of a measure.. the "Claps".

well actually I do it the other way around too, just depending on how I end up going into it during a track. lol
