Dabs are simple and pretty cool dance moves that can be learned in a few minutes. This move is suitable for dancing at a club or school event. Once you've mastered the dab, it's best to move on to quan or shmoney. You can combine these three moves to create your own signature dance move.
Step
Method 1 of 3: Starting Dab
Step 1. Raise both arms to the sides
Raise your arms so they are in line with your shoulders. After that, bend one arm around your body as if holding a sneeze with your hand. Keep the other arm straight.
Step 2. Insert the head down
Then, tuck your forehead into your bent arm and touch it to your elbow as if you were sneezing into your sleeve or wiping sweat off your forehead. Keep the other hand straight.
Straighten your arm after rubbing your forehead there
Step 3. Tilt your head to your elbow
After bringing your head to your elbows, you can tuck your head once or twice before straightening your arms and switching sides. Just jerk your head quickly toward your elbows.
This head tilt should be safe, but can still cause injury if done too hard. You can skip this move if in doubt
Step 4. Switch sides
You can repeat the dab movement several times. If you switch sides, you can repeat the same dab with the other arm. For example, if you start from the left side, switch to the right side.
Keep changing sides to the music
Step 5. Get moving
You can dab with your upper body and move your lower body as you wish. You can jump, walk, or sway your hips.
You can also perform other moves between dabs, such as waving your fist in the air sideways in front of you. Include your signature and have fun
Method 2 of 3: Doing Quan
Step 1. Squat down
Quan requires a lot of movement in the lower body so it's a good idea to squat down to allow easy movement of your knees and legs. Bend your knees so that you are slightly squatting.
Keep in mind that your body doesn't have to be too low to dance the Quan. You just bend your knees a little
Step 2. Swing your arms
Next, relax your arms slightly at your sides, and use your shoulders to move your right arm in front of you and your left arm behind you. After that, switch your arms so that your left arm is in front, and your right arm is behind you.
- Continue to rotate your arms back and forth.
- You can swing your arms a little high or low.
- You can also bend your elbows slightly, or keep your arms straight.
Step 3. Move the pelvis
Next, start moving your pelvis back and forth in slow circular motions. Continue to rotate your pelvis back and forth, and try to move your body like a worm.
- You can also move your abdominal muscles if they are flexible enough.
- Some people use a pushing motion when doing Quan. Do a dance that feels natural to you.
Step 4. Get moving
Step slightly back and forth or sideways while continuing to swing your arms and move your pelvis. You can jump a little or stay in place if you want.
Method 3 of 3: Dancing Shmoney
Step 1. Stand up and spread your feet shoulder width apart
Shmoney is a simple dance and is good for slow songs. You can do it alone in one place, or with a partner. Stand with your feet shoulder-width apart and bend your knees.
Your body doesn't need to be too low, but if you can, go for it
Step 2. Rotate your pelvis
The shmoney dance begins with twisting and twisting the pelvis back and forth. Let your knees move along with your hips. Dance to the music and relax.
Try moving one side twice and switching to the other side once for added variety. Or, create your own creative pattern
Step 3. Move your arms along with your pelvis
You can raise your arms above your head or just up to chest level. Move your arms as you please as you dance Shmoney.
