Robot Dance
•Alright, the first thing people, is to do a little warm up. It is not necessary, but will help you to make your dancing moves come easily. So, just do a little mild jogging in a place, or just shake a little bit for 5-10 minutes, so that your blood starts circulating throughout your body.
•Now, stand in front of a mirror (a large mirror preferred). Dancing in front of a mirror will give you a good idea. If you need some music while you are dancing, then play some slow electronic dance beat music to help you. You can play technologic or robot rock by Daft Punk, or play my favorite song to do the robot dance which is boys noise by Erole Attack.
•Now, you start moving your limbs, like a robot. Wondering, how to robot dance? Simple, work in jerk like motions. First, start with your hands, and break down in jerk like motions where there are joints. For example, move your wrist down – then abrupt stop, then move the wrist to middle – abrupt stop, then move it to top – abrupt stop. This way move your elbow, shoulder. Look in the mirror to see if you are doing the stops and movements properly. Once you have learned how to move your hands like a robot, then start with your waist, then with neck, then with your legs.
•So, just keep breaking your motions at the major joints abruptly, and soon you will get the flow. Make sure you go slow in the beginning, and get the dance form right, then try some popular dance moves.
•Some of the popular dance moves are the arm sway move, where you need to let your arm stop and let go down, and let it sway in the air. Then you can try the famous Michael Jackson. Don’t know what I am saying? Then learn how to moonwalk. You can also try the arrested robot move, where you can arrest the movements of your various body parts and then shake them rapidly, and freeze in a broken down posture. Read the rest of this entry »
