Is it ok? power:clockwise footworks:counterclockwise - 10-12-2008, 09:35 PM

When I do power i rotate clockwise but when i do footworks ,i do it counterclockwise. im a right handed person. Im more comfortable doing footworks and some styles counterclockwise.I can express my self more when doing footworks in this direction but and when i try to do it clockwise its kinda bit awkward and not comfortable with it.i dont know why. Is this ok? power: clockwise footworks:counterclockwise

You can learn how to reverse the direction of your footwork. It's not that hard.

No u dont. Ull be totally fine if u can create some dope transitions to and from ur power like ive done. I do the same thing as u: fw ccw and power cw. Its no problem, just takes a little more to work on, which i think is a good thing cuz it makes u come up with more transitions than normal.

So u have the same case like mine?.. so what your trying to say its ok that my fw and power arent in the same direction?

"i think is a good thing cuz it makes u come up with more transitions than normal".. i thought it so.

il be having a hard time reversing my fw if were to change the direction. it would take me months again to recover what i did on the other direction. lol

Just learn power the ccw. Unless youve made a lot of progress in the power area.

Just figure out a unique way to transition into them. Thats what I do......minus the unique part
