Transcript of Punch down move:
Hi, I’m Keith Fitzpatrick and this is hip-hop moves for men and we’re going to go with something I call the punch down. All right? So this one is just real cool kind of hard step at the same time and you have the opportunity to be smooth and hard at the same time.
So we’re going to start off with your step to your right, you’ll hit down, with your right hand and your left foot will come up, so you’re going to punch down here, boom. All right, so you’ll step here, you’ll do the same thing, punch down here, you’ll slide out and hit both down and that leg will come up, okay?
So again it’s going to go, one, two, slide out, three, hit both, boom. And I really want that last one to kind of come all the way down and shoot your leg as high as you can get it, okay? So, again it’s going to be one, two, three, down. All right, the other way. You’re going to hit here, here, slide out, drop. However you do it make sure that you get that transition I was talking about.
You want to get low, low, up, low. Okay, so the tempo is going to be here, here, boom, pah. All right, again, you’re here boom, boom, slide out, hit. You can do it the same way the other way after you hit there you can just come right, back, boom. All right, so the last time you’re here, one, two, three, here, boom, boom, slide, pah. All right, there’s your punch down.
