You are not doing any of these moves well enough to demonstrate them correctly. Your form is not good right now, but please keep practicing because you're headed in the right direction. Almost everyone who is just starting to learn these movements are not good at it, so don't feel bad about my criticism. Without real criticism to guide you, you'd be trash. Don't allow your friends or dance colleagues to only give you praise. Always seek an honest opinion from a qualified source. You'll get exponentially better and quicker with the right instruction. I am a 56 year old veteran of this dance and I still get concepts and advice from those more experienced (and most of the time older) than me. UNDERSTANDING the dance is key, not dance move names or trivial history. Remember: its not necessarily about moves as much as it is about MOVEMENT or the way you are moving. Have fun!
Do you know what’s the biggest difference between you and him though? He actually took the time to try to share a little bit of what he knows by putting in effort to make a whole ass video! I’ve met so many veterans like you that are so unenthusiastic, half assed and gatekeepy about their knowledge. Yall then go on to complain when people don’t do it right. If it bothers you and you wanna talk about criticism, then maybe teach other people or more imperatively instead of just saying he’s doing it wrong without explanation, explain how he’s doing it wrong then! Maybe even make a video showing how to do some of these moves with the proper technique. OG dancers confuse me, because y’all came from a culture that was highly communicative, collaborative, and a melting pot… somehow over the years a lot you guys lost that spirit, becoming stale and non communal. Welcome to the New World where if you don’t share your knowledge and the original culture, people are going to imitate it in ways that are inauthentic because you guys were not willing to adapt or share, so yes, we’re gonna get watered down versions of things.
