Get Outside! Try these killer moves and games on your own.

Remember, before you can execute a move properly you must first master it. Practice, practice, and practice some more in your yard or the park. When you’re finally comfortable; bring it to into your practices when appropriate. Only then when you’ve mastered the move should you break it out in a game situation. The move should come naturally with very little conscious thought and at that point it’s no longer just a move — it’s part of your game.
