Flair Lesson #31: Combo #3

At first glance this is by far the most complex, longest, flashiest flair move we’ve learned so far. But if you’ve been practicing the earlier moves and being ambidextrous, it will be amazingly easy.

All we are doing here is putting together three moves we’ve already learned. Start with the Double Flat Back to Front. That should build a little momentum to bring you into the Circle Swipe Thru. Finish with the Change Grip into Arm Roll Down, or any other of the Change Grip finishes we annoyingly had to learn in the first half dozen videos.

That’s it. Not a lot of technical advice to give in this clip. Instead, I want to take a moment to congratulate you – if you’ve been patient, practicing, and slowly building to get here – because here is where your hard work will really start to pay off. And here’s where it gets fun. Up to now, we’ve been learning all these small little one-or-two motion moves. Now is when I start to show you how to synthesize those moves together into more entertaining routines. I also encourage you to start combining moves on your own, start putting them together in ways that make sense to you, ways that feel fluid or natural. You’ve got the tools, it’s time to start making your own not-quite-mini routines.
