The Architect

Salah draws inspiration from man-made structures and the technology that creates them. The movement he demonstrates has a natural precision – replicating 3D form using the human body.

05

Culture is Key

In his final tutorial, Salah looks at finding true freedom of expression and a journey of self-discovery. No one should look the same when they freestyle, it is a unique combination of individuality and practised movement.
