Damn this is proper teaching that you never find in tutorials! Thank you so much for this!

I never thought that a simple 6-step has so much science in it!!! Damn!!!

This changed my dancing forever

Started dancing 96 in gravesend/Bensonhurst Brooklyn NYC. This guy is the real deal. Super knowledgeable. I am very inspired. Respect. Bboy FORM.

Wow! #FantasticBreakDOWN -hELLA HUNG THANK YOU!

great tutorial

Excellent. Thank you for taking the time to break it down like this. One thing to add is a bit of historical context, which I don't think conflicts with anything being taught here. The six step is a great point of reference for teaching! But I think it is important to acknowledge that footwork comes out of sporadic steps, which were a direct response to the ferocious breaks of the record. I know my brother Focus knows this, but it was far less specific back in the days at the birthplace in the South Bronx. Some kids did six steps, some did 3, some did 5.333! The style of how you did your "shuffles" was your fingerprint. But no matter what steps you do, the form needs to look fresh at every single point (as explained in this vid), so if a camera were to snap a photo of you, you look good no matter which freeze frame it catches you at. Also, because this dance was born in tight cyphers, footwork rotates. The sixstep is usually taught straight on (like here) which you definitely need to be able to do, and that suits the competition world of one crew/breaker on one side directly across from the opposing crew/breaker on the other, but in the cypher you also need to rotate in on yourself all the time. That constant rotation changes your form and flow and also makes your steps look less predictable. Even a basic continuous sixstep looks more confusing in a dope way when it is rotating, because the rest of the cypher is constantly seeing your form from different angles. I am working on this right now! That is a part of the artform that competitions have kind of erased. Just sharing what knowledge I've been blessed with by the Philly, New York and London originators who made the effort to teach me. I hope this helps, and thanks for creating this channel. Peace!

thanks for the knowledge

After 20 years of 6 stepping 3 or so times a week I still learn things to improve it. That fingers back technique is amazing. I never heard of that. Thank you.

Stilosissimo! 🌈

Too good and precise. Can I get the music which occured that the end of the video?

The only thing I would add is that the weight when you go up to your palms should be on a sweet spot between the index and middle fingers. Lots of beginners go too low. Anyway one love, Focus

Palms up seem dangerous for your thumb. Leaves it quite vulnerable.

Does a six step has to be "6 steps" when doing variations?

How can i get that shirt? $

I suffer from almost all these mistakes...

Nice guy and maybe good speach too, but it all helps me nothing. Will looking for more helpful tutorials.
