By Jason Taingahue
This article is all about how to learn to hip hop dance. Many people would like to learn how to hip hop dance all over the world.
Do you ever go out to night clubs and wish that you could dance? Well read on and I will give you a few good pointers on how to hip hop dance.
First of all when learning how to hip hop dance we must have the correct timing and for hip hop dancing the music is broken down into beats of four. This is crucial to remember when learning how to hip hop dance because this is what we call rhythm and without the correct timing or rhythm when learning how to hip hop dance we wont be able to learn this style of dancing at all.
The next step when learning how to hip hop dance is to try this move first. Stand in one spot with your hands to your side and your feet about shoulder width apart and now move one foot to the side and count one, and while you are moving that foot to the side move the other foot to that side as well so that they are both together and count this as two. So you have a count of one, two and for the next move when learning how to hip hop dance move the foot that made the last movement back to the other side for a count of three and then move the other foot in the same direction so that the both of your feet are together and this is your count of four.
So basically you are learning a basic rhythm to follow when learning how to hip hop dance. And it is simple by just moving your feet from side to side and counting each step until you reach a count of four.
Our next step when learning how to hip hop dance is we are now going to use our hands in that movement so on your first step of one when you move your foot to the side raise the same hand that your foot is moving into any direction at the same time as your foot is moving and this is still your count of one. When you move the next foot so that the feet are together, raise the hand down and do the same on the other side. This is called a poly rhythm so keep practicing this same movement using different hand directions.
These are the basics when learning how to hip hop dance and after you have learnt just these movements you can then move onto more advanced moves.
Remembering that same timing when moving the legs from side to side you can now start by moving the legs into different directions but still counting in beats of four and using the hand movements in any direction as well. You can even use head movements the same way that you use your hand and leg movements when learning how to hip hop dance just keeping it in the same timing.
It's as simple as that and anyone can learn how to hip hop dance so long as they know the right timing and you can even make up your own moves. There is no restriction when learning how to hip hop dance. The main thing that you need to do is have fun.
