At 15 I was very clumsy, big feet and my footwork wasn't great. I was definitely not quick.
Alex de Minaur
Personally, I always try to focus on the little things in my game. As a defender and attacking outside back, I continuously work on completing passes, not being too predictable going forward into the attack, good services into the box, good positioning and footwork.
Ali Krieger
I have the skills to box and not get into a war. I've been getting punishment I shouldn't be taking because, sometimes, I'm too brave for my own good. When I've got good footwork and movement, I should use them.
Amir Khan
I'm an orthodox fighter, relaxed, fast, and powerful. And I've got good footwork.
I work out a lot, but it changes day to day. I always start out with some cardio - either a jog, a bike ride, or footwork drills designed specifically for tennis movement. Then I do weights, but I switch the days: one day it's upper body, the next day it's lower body. Then I do stomach and back pretty much every day.
Ana Ivanovic
I've been working on my footwork a lot.
Andre Drummond
I dazzle you with that footwork.
Bobby Darin
We were in Philadelphia when Manager Pat shifted me from third to short, and right off the bat, I knew I had found my dish. Footwork was more a part of the new position than it had been at third. I suddenly felt I had sprouted wings. A world of new possibilities opened for me.
Bobby Wallace
Hassan N'Dam is a very good fighter, he's very experienced and been around a long time. He's got good footwork, very good movement.
Callum Smith
Be real with yourself in whatever area of your life and your game that you need improvement on. Once you figure that out, you just have to go out and work on it. For me, it's footwork. I constantly work on it, and it's a never-ending process.
Calvin Johnson
Froch is like a train who just comes forward but Groves will move about, fake and feign and his good footwork is a big part of his game.
Chris Eubank Jr.
I've learned new footwork patterns that are very unusual. I've learned how to find a lower centre of gravity, and I've found more angles to throw shots.
Conor McGregor
Even if I'm not a big guy, I have good footwork, I'm fast on the court, and I see the ball really early.
David Goffin
I don't have the same serve speed as some of the guys, but I have good footwork, and I take the ball early.
A lot of people might sit back and watch Dominick Cruz doing his footwork, and say, 'Oh, Dominick Cruz just dancing around, and he runs away.' It's a totally different atmosphere until you get in there, and you actually experience it.
Demetrious Johnson
There's a lot of things I can get better at as far as my footwork, being quicker, getting in and out of the hole, getting north and south.
Derrick Henry
Obviously, you look at footwork and things of that nature, but that's not just at my position. That's from everyone.
Donovan McNabb
I didn't study dance. I had some ballet lessons because I needed it for posture and for my arms, mostly. My skating coach said I really needed it, from the belly button up, as opposed to the footwork. In skating, the shoes don't move.
Dorothy Hamill
Soccer helped especially with my footwork. When I played soccer, I was on offense scoring goals - I didn't pass the ball so much so it probably didn't help much with being a point guard.
Goran Dragic
The level of difficulty in most areas of MMA is very high. It's a high learning curve. The footwork in boxing alone takes years to master. I will rely heavily on my amateur wrestling to get out of bad situations and take me from defense to offense. I'll try to dictate the fight on my terms.
Jake Hager
At some point, the power side of the game has to peak, players can't get much bigger. Guys will be doing more footwork and explosive-speed stuff.
Kobe Bryant was the reason I started playing basketball - always was and will be my favorite player of all time. I love the way he could get his shot off, his footwork down in the post, just his determination to be the best player.
Somebody is going to have to do fancy footwork to make sure Elizabeth and John Edwards get their prime-time shot .
I'm from Chicago, so you know we come from juking and footwork.
I have great artistry, I can spin well, I have good footwork, and I can jump. I can do the quad jump, and I've done it multiple times in competition. It's definitely a jump that I have in my arsenal. I like to think of myself as the complete skater.
I want to block some common misunderstandings about 'understanding': In many of these discussions one finds a lot of fancy footwork about the word 'understanding.'
When you have an audience standing and screaming the entire way through the short program and cheering every element you do, whether it's footwork, or spin, or a jump, to have that kind of emotion coming at you from every direction in the building, it's the most amazing sensation you can get as a sportsman.
Footwork is the biggest element to any quarterback game because if it's off, it will mess with your mechanics.
A style is not a matter of camera angles or fancy footwork, it's an expression, an accurate expression of your particular opinion.
Once I got to college, I didn't know defensive rotations; my footwork was sloppy. I used to travel every other play.
I can teach many sports, but obviously, tennis is the one. When you do other sports, you see things from different perspectives: different footwork drills, body positions, angles and geometry. All that stuff is helpful, and so when I do other sports, I can see things, because once you know one sport, then the other sport becomes more clear.
Even as a coach, sometimes you forget the little intricacies of the offense, the details of the routes, the timing of the footwork, and the timing of the offensive tackles with the different sets that they have.
I believe I'm better than everybody when it comes to footwork, timing, reflexes, defense, you name it.
Daisuke Takahashi has really good footwork.
You've got to learn the footwork, the positioning, how to box out, how to pass, how to shoot your free throws. All these things are necessary, not to be the No. 1 player in the world, but maybe you can play against him.
You see Tom Brady, you see Alex Smith, and you see all those guys in the pocket and how quick they are with their footwork and how they get the ball out fast. I have to get like that.
When I'm disciplined with my drop and my footwork, I usually throw it pretty good. And when I'm a little bit off, or a little careless in that manner and not dead on to where I'm supposed to be, I'm not as good. So that's one thing - just being disciplined in my drops and my footwork.
Rampage's footwork is atrocious. His boxing is slipping. He doesn't take the fight game seriously.
MMA embodies a lot of disciplines of sports with footwork and with football, especially with the punching technique you get the hand and eye coordination.
No, my dance moves are always working no matter where I am. Whether at the house or if I'm out, at the facility working out, practicing, you gotta get the dance moves right. They help out with your footwork.
We were pretty darn good - fit and ready to play - but today's level is different. Those ground strokes are ever so much faster, coming back at you at a pretty good speed. Footwork-wise, you've got to be ready to hit that next shot. It's a tough time.
I wasn't allowed to throw big hooks and overhand rights until I'd been striking for three years. It's so you don't rely on those things from the very beginning. If your footwork sucks, and you can only stand in one place and throw your hands all crazy while the other person is running around, you're never going to be able to hit them.
I definitely get down on myself. I needed to work on my self-talk. The same way you do footwork drills and cardio training, I had to do self-talk training.
I've just tried to do everything I can personally to be the best quarterback I can be, whether it's doing extra work for my rehab, extra work in the film room, on the board, extra work out on the field with my drops and footwork.
I used to break dance. I can do some good James Brown footwork. But now I think I've danced too much. My girlfriend made fun of me: 'Enough with the dancing.'
With any player, especially at quarterback, I don't care if you're talking Tom Brady or Peyton Manning or Drew Brees: you want to make sure to continue to hammer down the fundamentals, and it all starts with your feet. Everything starts with footwork.
I'm a lot more comfortable in the ring. I'm comfortable catching punches, and defensively, I feel like I've improved a lot. I am banking on my athleticism. I've worked hard on my footwork.
I think footwork is one of the most important things to becoming a great fighter. That's where everything starts.
It's true that I went to dance classes as a young boy, and it did improve my feet, but I don't believe that it was solely dancing that helped my footwork.
And since my father started training me, he always explained to me how important footwork is and how strong your legs have to be.
