Fresno, anyone? - 04-20-2005, 02:21 PM

anyone got a video guide, or just a written guide, videos would be easier, that can show me how to fresno, or even to show me what it is?

Peace

I believe wiggles had said something about fresno on his site, maybe you should check there and it could still be there? it isnt a video, but its text, better than nothing.

Tight. A move with the same name as my hometown! But yeah, from what I know, it's a basic arm/leg wave. You do an arm wave from left to right, and at the same time, do the exact same thing with the legs. That's it. Basic left-to-right movement.

I dunno if it's correct.

Yea, I don't think thats right twinkle

From what I've heard (and what I've been taught by a person who worked with Sam before) the fresno is just popping your right leg and arm at the same time, then shifting over to the left and popping both the left arm and leg at the same time, then repeating. Its a really basic movement.

lemme set this straight here...

Maydenchina is right about the fresno.

it's hitting one side of your body, then shifting to the other side and hitting it.

it's a basic foundation move.

hit your right leg + right arm,
then
hit your left leg + left arm

you can choose to do it twice each or do it singular.
(and by that i mean by the beat.)

psyk - thats not what Sam says in UDM forgotten history - sorry dude...

He in fact demonstrates a boogaloo walkout and says - and i quote - "yeah, lets put that in fresno".

fresno is the collective term for popping and boogalooing from the Fresno area - the collective term for sam and the electric boogaloo lockers creations.

Just like Saccing, and Filmore etc. there are many moves in all of them, but of course there are basic moves which are typical of each style.

This basic arm popping step described above this post is the example for fresno, saccing would be the example for...well..saccing. Not being contrary, just naturally anal. =)

y'know; I just started dancing again.

No, mogwai is right. There is a specific fresno style popping. If you watch sam get down, thats all he does. Anyhow, ppl nowadays just consider fresno style popping part of the umbrella term popping and they took the most basic movement from it and names it the 'fresno'

When doing the fresno...... what are you all hitting? Your arms only, or arms and legs or everything on that side of your body? Also what are you doing with your feet?

Well..the fresno that I know, and that I learned from this site, and what psyk is talking about. Is where your standing, lets just say your start off leaning a little to you right. You hit with your right arm and right leg, and then shift your weight over a little to the left and hit with your left arm and leg. And you're just standing there...
