Popping is the #1 dance style seen in hip hop music videos today that feature street dancers. Unfortunately, popping is rarely taught in dance studios so if you don't live in a major US city such as New York or Los Angeles, learning from a teacher in-person can be impossible. YouTube clips leave out the important practice techniques meaning it can take years to learn! I have put together everything I know about learning popping into this 60 minute instructional video so anyone can learn faster & easier. This video is intended for complete beginners and requires no previous experience. This DVD is taught by TheRussianTiger who has over 11 Million YouTube views and was on America's Got Talent Season 5. Video runs for over 60 minutes and cover all the basics of popping in 16 parts. Content of the video: Robotics, Dime stops, Isolations, Arm Waves, Body Waves, Combining Waves, Hitting Techniques, Hitting Exercises, Basic Fresno, Gliding Techniques, Side Glide, Square Glide, Zombie Walk Exercise, Side Head Isolation, Front Head Isolation, Review & Advice. The moves are broken down so they are easy to understand and follow. Anyone can learn! DVD works in all types of players and computers.

Really pleased with this
I bought this video along with the basic one, and was happy with it. You can read my review on the basic video which I though was great, no need to re-review it here.It took me about 3 weeks of practicing with the basic dvd before I felt comfortable moving on to this freestyle dvd. It has a lot of useful tips and the practice techniques are helpful. Last 15 min is a lot of talking and less showing. Perhaps wait until you got the basic moves before getting the freestyle DVD, not necessary to buy them at the same time if you give up after the first one, you really need determination for this.. imo.

I learned so much from these DVD's. Dance really ...
I learned so much from these DVD's. Dance really looks intimidating, especially when you're watching all the slick dancers on Youtube. But Jeff breaks things down so well, that he takes the mystery and complexity out of the movements. Also, if you have a question, he will respond to his emails quickly (I emailed him, and he got back to me the next day). Quality guy, and quality DVD's.

Awesome
This DVD was awesome, ur truly a great teacher and the movements were broken down so i could learn without rewinding a zillion times. I have been following the teacher (aka TheRussianTiger) on YouTube for years, only criticism is the video quality is not top of the line, but who really cares because the bottom line is I really learned from it.. if I can learn that says something. I definetely recommended this if you want to learn popping, but be ready to be committed, it takes practice. With RussianTiger teaching, this is your best shot.

Good instruction, great dancing
I got this as a gift. I didn't watch it for a while because I thought it was going to be corny, and, because as a black male, I must admit that I bought into the whole "white people can't dance" stereotype. So, one day I was really bored and popped this DVD in because I thought I'd have a few laughs (entertainment, you know). I was shocked. Dude can dance. He taught me how to pop. No lie.
