      @DanceJudge Před 4 lety +1

      white hat knows exactly what she is doing & she is wearing comfortable low boots she knows she can dance in . She can play with the timing and mix it up and still be right there when she wants too. Others are just trying to get it just the one way. The one in the ribbon sweater is one of the less confident of the group, all that looking down, she is foot focusing, not hearing the music, just trying to keep up or on it. Those heels really limit what one can do, number one is just balance but not alot of bending & straightening of the knees or putting a foot out very far. You have to land each step with the whole foot pretty much.

    The lady in the bottom left corner talking, chewing gum and stepping at the same time is the one I would have my daughter learn how to step from. She move like she do this for a living. She the chick at the job you go speak to when you need to know how to get all your vacation and sick days.

  • @RisingRemnant1
    @RisingRemnant1 Před 8 lety +41

    While watching, I'm saying in my head, "Step, Ball/Change, Step, Ball/Change, Kick-Kick." over & over again until my feet moved right along with it. BOOM! It truly is an, "Effortless" routine. We can then add whatever moves, turns, spins, & flava' we wish. Love it, BRAVO! Grown & Sexy Generation all Day & Night. Peace!

    • @brothermouzone1307
      @brothermouzone1307 Před 3 lety +1

      Never heard it put that way, your own point. The correction: It's Kick-Kick, Step ball/ change.
      The dance starts on 7, 8 in 8 count stepping.
