How to Choreograph Without Knowing How to Count Music | STEEZY.CO 

As both an amateur writer and a dancer in training, that world building tip is now my favorite thing ever 😄

idk why steezy is so underrated i literally improved a lot since i discovered steezy. tysm!! lots of love ❤️

I love the boom ka tss tss ka, you always hear my dance teacher in the back talking that dance talk and I’m here for it

I never dance to counts to be honest. Recently I've tried to and It really does help slightly.

1:20 next-level creativity! I guess it's time for pay raise. I would love if the Steezy Team could make a video in which you recommend books that can be beneficial for dancers like, for instance, about physical conditioning, stories of dancers or philosophy.

I need to know how to choreograph without knowing how to dance

Is there gonna be a video for dancers like me that's titled "How to Choreograph Without Knowing How to Choreograph "

I feel like I'm weird when it comes to choreography. My choreography comes from freestyle so usually I feel the atmosphere of the song and it partially comes naturally. Then I commercialise (make more suitable for a choreo) then from there, voilà 👏🏿. Can anyone else relate or I'm just being weird? 😂🤷🏿‍♂️

Can i suggest? 😅 The importance of improvisation and the elements of dance. 🖤

I learn SOOO much from you guys!! :D I'm definitely the weird sounds count. For some reason when I use pure numbers, I get so focused on counting I lose track of the music and vibe.

I’m so excited to start choregraphing😊 I already got songs picked out but now I can dance to them. Thanks Steezy❤️🙏

The editing is immaculate im obsessed

lets all agree..STEEZY RULES✋✨

the weird sounds are life saviors

Love your Three Cheers For Sweet Revenge shirt, Clay! 🖤

I feel like I beat box(try) when I try learn a choreo, in my own head. The multiple sounds with the layers of music/instruments, a different sound comes out of my mouth until I can get a rhythm. Repetition of movements with the flow of music is where it all comes together.

JUST WOW, CHOROGRAPHY ESPECIALLY!

A good leader is a person who takes a little more than his share of the blame and a little less than his share of the credit

Great information Clay and really well presented my friend! I also love the video editing! 🔥🧯 When I've choreographed in the past, sometimes I've written out a music map of where the verses, chorus, pre chorus etc are and how many bars they are/how long they take!

0:14 David Lee is the most powerful and talented dancer I have ever seen in my life and I started dancing because of him. He is my greatest role model. 😍😍

i sucked at identifying beats in school, like if it was 5 counts, 3, or something like that. 8 count is easier ofc. Last year i did a choreography to an old jazz song that i just could not identify what the count was so i just used the sounds like ta ta ta ta ba ba swoosh, and it worked like a charm. I also always try to imagine the scene in my head before i start on the choreography so i know how much i even have to do, and what parts will be moving on the stage, formations and such. Usually that way i don't really have to sweat myself too much with a superlong choreography, and it looks cooler

Wow thank u i have been waiting for this🤘🏻😭😭😭 Lots of love for u

1:35 beat boxing lesson 😲

CLAY OVER HERE KILLING THE GAME🔥🔥🔥 (Also, loving the My Chem representation)

I could watch Clay dance all day.

This is gold😍❤️

im taking notes because this is a master class right here 😭😭💀🙏🙏🙏🙏

Thank you! 🙏🏿

clay is so entertaining

The world tipis soo good!

Beginner choreographer here. Thank you!

I live in 8 counts. 💎

I can't count beats in my head while doing a dance- it's mentally impossible and I just can't count beats in general because I get confused. I want to learn how though because it helps me to be on time but I don't know how :,)

Thanks i can't count i always messed up like 8,9,10,11,12 and realized the end is at 8 lol And sometimes 1 a 2 a 3 4 "slience" forgot to count lol

Thank you very helpful 🤌🏾🤌🏾🔥🔥👑👑🙏🏾

I use both

Plz make a video on "how to remember the dance creography" bcoz it always happens with me that as I creograph, I just forgot the step it is hard to remember the creography ..

Wow. I’m not a dancer. I just love watching Steezy. This was so informative

Lots of love from the land of Golden Silk...best tea....one horned rhino...largest river island....the largest man-made forest🙂🙏🏼❤️

What a creative way to approach choreography! Thank you! Also you don’t have to keep telling me how great the STEEZY app is, cause I already have a membership~☺️💃🏻

just figured out 'imma boom kah tss tss' dancer.. feeling not excluded from any choreographers and 99 others. i suppose. ;)

I was showing my girlfriend how I attack beats and did a complicated number explanation, but then switched to this approach and it worked. Onomatopoeia and focusing on the story of the song lyrics helped make it click.

Please give the editing guy a cookie. This must've been a real pain to edit.

this a wonderful platform

I didn't know he can beatbox too❤️🤣

can't wait to finish my corse then start my dance journey

真的非常非常非常非常喜欢你们！！而且课程很有帮助！！

Finallyyy😂😂i've been hoping to find another way around knowing my music cause i finds counts so hard to use...meanwhile @Steezy fam it's ya gurrll😎😎😂😂and hope y'all are good, i'm wondering if for your next three choreo, one song could you do the prompts thing again, like the one where they have to incorporate a theme into their piece, i really liked the previous one, and i've rewatched it like soo many times...just suggesting😊

This is what ive been waiting for

Steezy is the best!! Could you guys make a video on transitions? It's hard for me sometimes, especially transitioning to the floor.

Can you make a video how many types of dances are there and moves too

Yo my favorite musics I'm cominnnnggggggg😎💜 And guess what this time I'm gonna cover you cuz I learned how from my teachers😎💜

The first song is G.o.a.t by polyphia...if you're wondering

I just go with the flow.

I missed these videos. Thank youuuuu

Allll facts through & through 💯

Such a great help! And seriously wait a few month i almost got money steezy 😢

needed this godamn

What if steezy could engage their viewers more? They could start a new series where they up dance youtube channels from the comments section (given that people participate) and then talk about what worked or not (or something of that sort). It's just a thought!! I really do enjoy and learn from the content created here!! Kudos

Amazing as usual ⚡

This was helpful!!!

Epic 🙌

OMG the My Chemical Romance shirt!!! LOVE IT!

can you guys make a video about the names and titles of different beats and instruments used in a song track?

ngl, I learned how to choreograph without counts and learn to pick up choreography without counts lol..counts throw me off so much, and my dancers ask me which count am I on etc, and im like I'm not doing counts..

woah there's a loop button? :0 LOVE IT

Dyam I have been having this crush on a zombie girl living in my neighborhood thanks Clay!

Hey steezy pls help me... I'm always confused about to dance workouts... Like lots of trainer says do all the exercise form head to toe... But on steezy any trainer don't say for head to toe & there is all workout divided in different of parts. Like... Warm-up Stretch Cool down Recovery Can you please say me ... How can I set all workout routine for daily bases... If I'm wrong so please what's the write way to do the proper routine... And sorry for all the english mistake because my english is so weak😅...

Tell us about polyrhythm

Choreography without counts is a genre of Beatboxing :p

Does anyone know how to find a group to dance with? Whether that be finding people individually or an actual group

hello!! how should i fast my moves and new moves

I love sounds, don’t get me wrong! But I’ve been to many a hip hop classes and ask the instructors what the counts are and they just say “I don’t know, I just choreograph to the words” and it drives me CRAZY! I CANNOT learn off of just words… I NEED counts. So why did I pay $85 dollars to learn nothing?

OMG i have been doing this for months and thought i was weird

they just read our minds

This is beatboxing

Im a beginner and try to count since 3days and its perturbing me what should i do ? It is normal?

I make noise with my teeth and I never knew I did it a few days ago and I use my saliva sometimes in my mouth to make sounds too ITS WEIRD BUT THATS HOW I STAY IN SYNC

❤️❤️

The hybrid is a bit like... 1 and Kah and tsssss and 4- hold 5, 6,7- and-bahp

When he gave the world building tip, me who are one of 3℅ people who have aphantasia I'm like bruh if only I can imagine.

I never follow counts to dance tbh I just associate the moves to the lyrics and beats

Most of the time I imagine a dark room or a room room with white walls

Umm... Can we have a vid where sm tries to learn a steezy teacher choreo only by listening? I'm curious how the choreo would be if the person could only heat the "ok so to the left we're gonna do boom boom and then pa pa pa"

Lol, I don't do counts when I dance. I just go by sounds and lyrics. I've felt so guilty about this

😍

So i'm not a dancer, I'm a beatboxer

I'm definitely the dancer that makes the weird noises while choreographing😭😂😂

Hi

This is what I do I don't count never did

Moral: you know how to beatbox and dance at the same time

If I teach dancing especially with a famous song. I just told them to sing while studying the steps.

who is start Hip Hop movement please tell this✌ and also please share some Hip Hop knowledge💖

My man crush is Clay
