On behalf of Expert Village I'm Safi Thomas from the hip hop dance conservatory. These are our dancers, we are base here in New York City and we are going to show you how to lock. So we are going to start off with a simple lock and that is something that is going to be the single lock. What you want to do is make sure that your joints. Remember it is just having tension in the joints. The joints are going to create tension and you are going to freeze into place. That is why it is called a lock because you are locking the joint. You are locking the joint into place and then you release that tension and then you start to lock again. So it is just a tension and a release in a joint isolation. Observe.
