4 Footwork variation： Camel Walk

COURSE: struttin-vol-ii-more-moves

FOCUS: This lesson teaches the Camel Walk footwork variation in strutting, focusing on half-time practice and blending it with the basic strutting step.

TIP & TRICKS:

• Keep one leg straight and one leg bent to create a strutting pulse.
• Accent the movement with pops for a sharper, more defined shape.
• Practice crossing feet while maintaining the bent and straight leg principle.
• Try a chug variation by sending both feet forward simultaneously as if pushed from behind.
• Blend the Camel Walk with the normal jogging step for strutting to transition smoothly.

REMEMBER:

• The Camel Walk has a sharper edge and more defined shape compared to softer strutting moves.
• Incorporate the strutting pulse by shifting weight into one hip more than the other.
• Practice in all directions: forward, back, side-to-side, and with rotation.
• Use the Camel Walk as an accent or in sequences to add variety to strutting.
• Focus on whole-body movement to power the chug variation from behind.
