Hi Liwen, thanks for all your videos, it’s great stretching for my fingers as they do get stiff during the day! I appreciated all your exercises.

  Hi Ketayun!
  You can use the gear button on the player controls to change the speed on the video. 🙂
  Any specific questions you might have on arm styling?

I love all your videos, so cool but I’m wondering if you can do a video about FreeStyle dancing like you see in dance clubs. I dont have a partner so this is the only kind of dancing that I can do.
Thank you
Keep up the good work.
