— : b-boy Focus’ new course demystifying the code to truly awe-inspiring footwork
What’s up y’all. This is b-boy Focus of the world renowned Flow Mo Crew, here to talk to you about my latest course (and possibly last ever).
For nearly 3 decades, I’ve learned under pioneers like Ken Swift, Wiggles, and Storm, battled my way to the top, winning and judging the biggest battles on the planet.
Now I coach the world’s top breakers alongside complete beginners, to help them reach their goals faster.
And today … you’re about to learn my 3 step process to getting your footwork to an elite level like Jey, Intact… or even myself 😉
Back in December, I decided to do a footwork month just for fun (and to promote my course, Footwork Essentials). I ended up falling back in love all over again with the art & science of footwork.
I asked myself, “what are the basics of footwork?”
Originally I meant to film the answer as a bonus for Footwork Essentials. But then I kept labbing ideas… and before I knew it, I started getting ideas for a course, scripted it and then hit record.
This is the result.
Introducing:
THE FOOTWORK DICTIONARY
Demystifying the Code to Footwork Mastery
(Giving you the power to embarrass anyone in the cyphers – on command – with just your footwork 😈 )
The Footwork Dictionary
Demystifying the Code to Footwork Mastery
(Giving you the power to embarrass anyone in the cyphers – on command – with just your footwork 😈 )
I recorded 40 clips with 3 modules, each breaking down my 3 step process to reaching elite-level footwork:
Step 1 – Learn the Rules
Everyone starts here, but too many people forget these rules. I revisit the footwork foundation, teaching you the tools you need to be complete in your footwork.
Step 2 – Master the Rules
Knowing is not enough. I show you how to master the tools through the science of footwork.
Step 3 – Break the Rules
Only once you master the rules, can you start breaking the rules to become truly free in your footwork. I show you how to do that with the “Secret Foundation”, aka The Special Technique of the Dojo.
It’s so simple… but took me nearly 3 decades to understand it deeply enough to teach it to you right now.
And the price I’m charging?
Just 1 hour with me 1-on-1 can go up to $250.
But I’m selling this course (including life-time access) for only $199.
$199 for nearly 3 decades of footwork knowledge, distilled into 3 steps.
I almost feel like I’m getting robbed 🥲
But since I don’t battle much anymore, there’s no point anymore to keeping it all to myself.
Here’s what’s inside the course:
Module 1: The Footwork Toolkit
This is where you “learn the rules” by learning the 14 moves of the Foundation.
I go deeper than I ever have on each one, sharing the history of how I learned it from the OG’s. This section is good for complete beginners, but I’ve packed enough details to keep even a veteran b-boy inspired.
- See why you should use one arm or both for the CC
- Learn the OG 4 step and the Pyramid 4 step (as Poe One calls it) plus the 3 reasons why I love this move
- Avoid the 1 thing most people don’t pay attention to when doing the 3 step
- Stylize your 6 step with this fundamental “sweep” variation that’s simple but beautiful
- Unlock my favourite move of all time (that’s actually harder to master than you think)
- Make a move suited for tight cyphers powerful enough to kill it on a big stage
- Learn simple ways to make your foundation look powerful
- Discover this little-used move that I never see in big battles that could easily help you stand out from the competition
- Understand the heart of the pretzel so you can make any move into a pretzel
- Avoid being formulaic: “hard stuff – 6 step – hard stuff”; and get more variety in your footwork
Module 2: Footwork Science
Once you’ve learned the rules, it’s time to master them. I show you techniques for making everything look fresh – even if the moves themselves are still basics. You can’t skip this one! Without it, module 3 is a waste of time.
- Learn how a footwork scientist thinks about pretzels and can turn one move into mad new concepts and vocabulary
- 3 follow along drills to rock your footwork on beat
- Learn the 90% rule to connecting your footwork steps to make your rounds flow like butter
- How to easily build your freestyle muscle
- Even though you probably can’t do it, I’ll show you K-Mel’s and Machine’s preferred way of using their upper body while doing footwork – plus 2 others
- The antidote to getting out of safety moves like your 6 step, 3 step or CC’s
- The 2 biggest things you need to optimize if you want light footwork like the pros
- Do you know the proper hand alignment for powerful footwork?
- The McDonald’s Sign mistake that’s killing your stamina and form
- The difference between doing the step vs rocking the step
- Add more depth and flava to your footwork by being inspired from contemporary dancers
Module 3: The Secret Foundation
In this module, I show you how to “break the rules” through the 8 secret foundation moves that I won’t ever teach again:
The Secret Pretzel: the pretzel that never made it to Storm’s DVD! which he taught me years ago
360 CC’s: how I used the headspin leg swing concept with CC’s
Nordic Sweep combos: how many Nordic breakers used front and back sweeps to get more flow in their style
Bouncin’ CC’s: how I break the rule of “no bouncing” in your footwork to make something fresh
The Double CC Spin: my first ever original move I came up with from my old Midpoint Rocker tapes
CC Style Footwork: the move that’s helped me win Rock Steady Crew anniversary battle and countless footwork battles that I haven’t seen done in 2 decades
The Floating Air Shuffles: shows you how to combine different ideas with basic foundation to make entirely new moves
Hook spins: a dynamic infinite signature pattern from my IBE Footwork battle days
So just to recap.
For $199 you’ll get lifetime access to The Footwork Dictionary, including 3 modules that take you through the 3-step process to footwork mastery: learning the rules, mastering the rules, and breaking the rules.
This is the fast-track blueprint to footwork freedom
