Guide: Flexes - 07-18-2005, 10:31 PM

I was one day bored at home and decided to draw up some flexes just in case i forget them... I only know 4 flexes... are there more?

Created by Twist O Flex Don (RIP) from the original Electric Boogaloos
Counts = Steps

Twist O Flex: 8 counts – Isolation of different parts of body and changing of direction/position

http://www.bboy.org/gallery/showphot...0&ppuser=69661


Neck-o-Flex: 3 counts – Isolation of Neck n Body and changing of direction/position


Master Flex: 9 counts – Isolations and Levels and changing of direction/position

http://www.bboy.org/gallery/showphot...0&ppuser=69661


Bottom first: 2 counts – Isolation of Body and Legs and changing of direction/position


Note:
- Flexes = Teaches Isolation
- Once u get it down, u should try to create variations of each, they are just foundations


Leave any suggestions here and not in the gallery section... cus i hardly go there




A few definition that i use to describe dance in general

Dance: Movements done to portray the music.
Dance styles: Specific movements done to portray the music.

Lol, youve had those for ages, why didnt you post them up earlier? i think all those flexes were just variations of the twist o flexes and were just said to be foundation coz theyre common.

Yeah i had those for quiet sometime... i was planning to do the rest of the flexes but im not really bothered lol...

Im not really sure about the history of the Flexes... it does makes sense if the other flexes originated from the 'Twist O' cus the creater was "Twist O Flex Don"... does any1 know?

Not saying I know, but from the twisto flex don footy I have seen, he added the 90 and 180 degree rotary isolations into his boogaloo - the entire technique was called twisto flex - i dont think it was just one move (as a lot of people say/teach).

At the same time of course, the "twistoflex" move we all know and love is probably his main foundation move because it applies twisto of each part of the body. Thats how he would teach it im sure.

Thats my pointless thinky bit done. Chew it up and spit it out if u like.

I like the pictures - i was hoping one would die in a horrible way and just keep looping, but alas...no...

To Danis Kool:

Your drawings are so hard to understand for me. Can you upload some video or draw in more detail? If you don't have time just ignore me.
Thanks!!!!

Wow, u got the master flex right, awesome!

Its neck-o-flex haha, not neckro. Also, u can break them down as much as you want, like do half a twisto, and then change it up, or do parts of a master, add in some leg roll or neck roll or an extra head turn or toe and heel pivot and continue, or completely break off of it. Mix and match is teh way to go.
