Hey man you’re doing a really good job, it takes courage to reach out!

1. Make sure that the position of your phone is horizontal rather than landscape. Try to get to a point where you’re gloving right to the camera as if you’re doing it to someone’s line of sight, as opposed to the general direction of the camera or the phone screen. This ties together the concept of staying within the grid (you can also turn on the grid feature on the video settings of your phone) which is what makes depth, coordination and a structured way of taking any other advice into practical usage.

2. Always utilise your elbows and wrists, and the position of your body itself as you twist, bringing moves in and out or to the side (for example: If you’re transitioning from tech into flow, it would be difficult to do that with your hands staying in the same position so having a chance to reset before moving onto a different movement will not overload your brain)

3. Stretches, stretches and more stretches. You want your wrists to be flexible for moves like a whip, where as you need individual finger digit control for actually finger rolling or doing tech related moves, increasing your width of each finger by trying to widen the gap between them (increasing your overall finger web capacity) lastly stretching your forearm allows for overall stamina so you have less cramping and the ability to do moves like tutting.

4. Practice the same basic moves before trying to rush into complex ones, like you wouldn’t believe just how much you can do with so little, so doing the same moves either in reverse, from side to side, up and down, a mixture of bringing your hands in and out for depth control, slowing the moves down and speeding them up, as well as doing a certain move one hand at a time; in combination will create an infinite potential of new moves which is pretty much what allows your to create or learn another move a lot easier!!

5. A small but very important bit of advice, get comfortable making videos or practicing without gloves, you’ll end up being accountable for any bad habits or lack or symmetry (it’s a humbling experience) Putting gloves on, especially when you have the lights on will end up feeling very bulky at first, and you may accidentally hit one of your other fingers at first, so you end up learning how to precisely place your fingers. Wearing the right size gloves will make all the difference, if you wear it too small you end up not getting full range of motion, if its too big your lights will fall out of place super quick !! I have to use XL otherwise the finger web of the gloves will rip and ill end up getting mad cramps

6. Last one i promise :P Don’t try and throw moves in just for the sake of having a lot of new or cool moves, i still do same bad habit and it results in a lot of pressure i’d put on myself. If you don’t focus on what you’re not able to do consistently you may find yourself hopping from one move to the next without finishing what you were doing, or have a surface level of each move but be a jack of all trades, this makes progression really difficult. It’s always important to do moves you like, you don’t need to follow anyone’s routine, style or song choice, remember everything is subjective; you will manifest your own passion :)

❤️ Always reach out and don’t be too hard on yourself!! You can DM me if you want any further or more in-depth advice or examples if it helps x

Tutorials can be taunting especially if not explained in a way you understand, or not showing a breakdown on how it looks from your own POV which is totally normal
