3 Simple Dance Moves for Beginners

Hi everyone!

Welcome back to another tutorial, my name is Mihran Kirakosian. Today we're going to work on 3 moves, 3 basic moves.

So, if you're a beginner this is perfect for you! Just to start it off, we're going to start off with a step touch. Real simple!

It's all about your attitude. It's all about bending your knees, giving

that bounce, giving that flavor. Okay, so simple. Right to left, we're going one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight.

Good.

okay so, a lot of people when they do this and if they've never done it before, they

 become very stiff and their arms...they don't know what to do with their arms. So you want to loosen up the arms. As a beginner, maybe just clap to keep the

beat. Just so your arms are working and then once you feel comfortable you can kind of do your own thing. So I'll just do one with a clap, six, seven,

eight. We're going one, two, three, four, five, six,

seven, eight.

Good.

As you can see, I bend my knees all the time so I am in this bounce vibe the whole time. So not sitting up and standing up like this, okay. So one more time. Five, six, seven, eight. Step one, two, three, four, five, six, seven,

eight. So all I'm doing is going step, touch, step, touch, step, touch, step, touch. So eight counts okay! One last time. Here we go, five, six, seven, eight. Go one, two, three, four, five, six, seven,eight.

Good.

The second move we're going to do, same idea but we're going to stay in place and our leg is going to go out and then come back in for the touch. Okay, so we're going to step out with our right leg, six, seven. And we're going to go step, bring it in, touch, step, touch, step, touch, step, touch.

Good.

So, remember you're going to stay in the center. You're not going to move, your leg is going to step out and then it's going to come back in. Another thing to remember, you're always want to stay on your toes.

Okay. You want to be able to move quick. So when I step out, I don't put my leg flat

down on the ground. Yeah, it's always up on my toes. If you look at it from the side, I'm always doing that. One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight.

Good.

When I'm on the ball of my feet, it is very easy for me to just switch anytime I want. So one last time! Staying in the middle. Six, seven, eight. I'm going... one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight.

Good. So let's connect move one and move two together.

Here we go. Five, six, seven, eight. Step one, two, three, four, five, six, seven,

eight. Second move, one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, perfect.

Let's do it one more time.

This time no break in between we just go. Five, six, seven, eight and one, two, three,

four, five, six, seven, eight. Step one, two, three, four, five, six, seven,

eight. Good. This brings us to the last step, the third step which is again, similar but now we're going to involve a slide. So what you're going to do is similar to the

first one but you're going to take a big step out with your right leg and then you're going to drag the left leg in to create a slide. So you're going to go...one step, two, three step, four, five step, six, seven step, eight.

Good.

Now, do the same thing but the leg that I'm dragging stays on my toes and I drag it. So I go, one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight.

Good.

I'll stand profile so you can see my feet. Same thing, I'm going to take a big step back. You're going to see me, uhhh, drag my right leg and you're going to see it on my toes. So you're going to go, one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight.
