videos to teach a total beginner

Rieferman · Post by **Rieferman** » 05 Apr 2011 10:14

A coworker checked out some footbag videos when he learned of my hobby and is very interested. He's in his mid 30's and has never played ever before, so he's not all about becoming the next BAP member or anything like that. But he wanted to watch some beginner level videos on the web to learn some kicks and basics. Please post links to some of your favorites for this purpose.

Thanks in advance

(edit: I am not asking for recommendations to purchase TOTT or direct him to footbag.org for hours of browsing etc... I'm strictly looking for easy to digest web links )

nice, I didn't realize Anz had added more to his library of tutorials. Those are exactly what I had in mind. Thanks!!

I hope your friend has not been tainted by that 'Expert Village' kid on youtube. I'm sure the guy means well but he posts lots of crappy stuff.

He did mention that he'd seen lots of vids but wasn't sure which ones were worthwhile. His goal is to be able to do consecutive kicks and some toe stalls. My other students are MIA right now, so he's my new mission!

Here you can find some really good tutorials:

They're in Polish language only but non-Polish should easily understand what's going on.

Hey Bob, funny you mention this. I just finished typing the preliminary to a project I was assigned in my Technical Writing class. It's an instructional project, and of course... I'm instructing on the basics of freestyle footbag. My partner and I are making a website with instructional videos and verbal instructions for dummies. It's due the Friday of PA Jam, so I can assure you, we will have it finished by that time. It would be great if you could look it over when it's finished and if you like it and think it doesn't suck (that bad

), show your new guy and see if he can learn a thing or two. Get back to me on this when you can.
