Let's do the crip walk. This dance is done with gangsters, but who says that we can't do it. You saw Dub C do this with his group Westside Connection. What you want to do is you want to twist your left foot out to the side like so. Just get used to twisting your left foot out. Once you get the hang of that, practice sliding your right foot back. You notice when you slide your right foot back, your left foot automatically turns to the side. That is the crip walk. You want to speed it up a little bit, so it should look like this. Maybe you can't do this side or maybe you want to get more advanced, you want to be able to switch sides. We're going to try and do the other side. It's the same thing just with a different foot. You're going to start twisting your right foot and you're going to bring your left foot back. Once you get good, you can switch from side to side. Let's try it. Once you get even better, let's do some double ups. So we're going to go left, right, and then we're going to double on the left side. This dance is really fun to do. You can do it in a group of people or by yourself.
