## FOCUS 
- This lesson teaches the hip push move in jookin, focusing on proper technique and styling variations for solo and partnered dancing.
## TIP & TRICKS:
- Keep your heel on the floor and legs relaxed to avoid a tense hip push.
- Maintain a long distance between ribs and hips to prevent crunching or tilting.
- Return to neutral position before taking the next step when adding hip push to the basic step.
- Adjust the swing size for faster music to keep movements controlled.
- In partnered dancing, hip push can be added as personal styling without needing to lead it.

##REMEMBER
- Aim for a grounded, earthy hip push with sass, not an upward or isolated movement.
- The hip push can be used as a substitution in the basic step or as a standalone styling element.
- In partnered variations, weight shifts may need to be led for coordinated movements.
- Experiment with different levels, such as swinging at normal height and lowering, to add variety.
