Hi Joey,

these are options for \setuphead[part] (MyPart in your case):

number=no.

This is the default for \setuphead[part] (only noticeable in doublesided
documents).

style is the right option there.

placehead=yes is required for \setuphead[part]. And also for MyPart.

header=empty and footer=emtpy. For the page break before the body text,
you need after=\page.

See above. I hope it helps,
