How to: Crossovers!
Crossovers are an important foundation move to effortlessly handle corners, maintain speed, improve balance and learn how to use your ✨️ Edges!✨️
• Start by practicing leaning your knee over the top of your little toe
(make sure you bend your knees!)
• Practice picking up your 'outside' foot and crossing it infront of the other - then step your back foot out to the side to catch yourself
• Practice rolling in a circle while leaning your knee over your little toe.
• and finally add everything together! - Drop, lean, cross, and catch!
For balance you may want to hold both arms out to the sides...
Or you can bring your 'outside' arm infront of you which will turn your shoulders in to the circle, helping you to lean over further.

I hope this video helps your crossovers!
Let me know what your favorite tips are!

How to: The Hez
The Hez is a funky little move that can be used by itself or you can use variations and combos to add more style or personality to your flow!

First, just practice shifting your weight onto your back foot while extending your front foot diagonally. practice on both sides until you're comfortable.

Then, add in the foot work:
1. bending down onto the back foot, and lift toes up on the front foot.
2. shift weight forward slighlty, to be able to lift the heel on the back foot.
3. shift weight back to the back foot, and lift toes up on the front foot again.
4. swap feet (and repeat step 1)

As you gain speed and confidence The Hez will become smoother and turn into a 3 step move (toe, heel, toe, swap/toe, heel, toe, swap/toe)

let me know if this video helped your Hez!

what are your favorite tips/drill for practicing The Hez?
