Description

Have you ever seen robot dancers in the streets? You know, the ones who are painted in all silver and they only move when you put a $1 dollar bill in their box!

How about YouTube videos with 17 million views?

The ones with amazing dancers from shows like Step Up, World of Dance and So You Think You Can Dance?

Here is your chance to learn the basic robot and popping foundations without even going to a studio!

  • Maybe you don’t have experience

  • Or you feel embarrassed to attend a class.

  • Perhaps there are no qualified teachers in your area.

  • You might not be sure if you’re ready to commit to weekly sessions!

I am going to teach you how to do the basic robot and 10 beginner Popping techniques by breaking it down in simple steps that anybody can follow.

You can go at your own pace and there is no pressure to keep up with others. It’s no problem if you trip on two left feet and look totally awkward like a middle-aged dad in a clown suit at first.

You might not become a professional overnight, but you’re definitely going to learn some party tricks, get some confidence and gain the foundations to grow from.

You might have seen dancers like Jaja Vankova, Jabbawockeez, Poppin John and more…. They all started where you are at - day 1! We all started from the ground up, and you can do it too!

This course is for people who have zero popping dance experience. You don’t need to have any background in dance. If you have some experience already, I will recommend my intermediate or advanced courses.

If you would like more information, here’s a course outline below:

Things you’ll learn:

  • Staying on the beat of the music

  • How to do basic popping ‘hits’

  • Basic robot moves

  • Body and arm waves, toyman, twist-o-flex and more

  • One choreographed routine per class

Don't worry if these sound hard. I’m going to teach you every step of the way and you don’t even have to get out of your pajamas. But please, at least wash them.

The goals of this course: You will understand the basic robot and be able to comfortably dance popping at a beginner level.

Imagine when you can show your mom or dad, husband or wife, friends or children the cool new dance moves you’ve learned!

You will get access to my Popping music playlist so that you can practice at home with the best music for this dance style.

If you want to learn how to dance at a party or social gathering, or just gain a fun hobby where you can express yourself creatively, this class is just what you need! At the very least, you’re going to get some sweet party tricks!

This will boost your confidence. What do you have to lose anyway?

These moves are going to stick with you forever, they are really for any age. You don’t have to be a young athletic 20 year old to be able to do the robot. When you’re older, your grandkids will think you’re awesome.

Come join me … let's get robotic together!

Don’t wait longer. Sign Up Now to get started in my course!
