<p>COURSE: hip-action</p>
<p>FOCUS: This lesson teaches the fishtail, a versatile hip-action move focusing on rotating the lower body while keeping the upper body stable, with variations in texture and practice tips.</p>
<p>TIP & TRICKS: <ul>
<li>Start with weight on the right, step back on the left while rotating to the corner, and keep weight in the heel.</li>
<li>Practice against a wall with hands placed wider than shoulders to keep the upper body facing forwards.</li>
<li>Swing the hip back as you step down, emphasizing the butt cheek movement for the fishtail effect.</li>
<li>Keep steps small and under the body to better show the hips, avoiding large steps that disrupt balance.</li>
<li>Maintain a double pulse for a groovy feel or smooth it out by removing the pulse for a different texture.</li>
</ul></p>
<p>REMEMBER: <ul>
<li>The fishtail involves rotating the lower body independently while the upper body stays forward, creating a twist in the center.</li>
<li>Focus on the hips and tail to give the move its name, with emphasis on swinging the butt back during steps.</li>
<li>Use the fishtail as a substitution for basic steps in dancing, adapting it to different rhythms and styles.</li>
<li>Practice with a wall to control step width and maintain proper upper body alignment for better technique.</li>

<p>COURSE: hip-action</p>
<p>FOCUS: This lesson teaches the Mooch, a hip-action dance move focusing on isolated circular hip motions. The goal is to practice and combine these motions in place and while traveling.</p>
<p>TIP & TRICKS: <ul>
<li>Imagine drawing a big circle with each hip bone using two giant pencils.</li>
<li>Roll through the foot when stepping: toe first, then ball, then heel for soft absorption.</li>
<li>When combining hips, use semicircles or rainbows instead of full circles.</li>
<li>Travel forward by stepping slightly in front with each weight change.</li>
<li>Travel sideways by circling the hip on the side you want to move to and stepping together.</li>
</ul></p>
<p>REMEMBER: <ul>
<li>Keep the hip motion subtle and isolated to avoid involving the whole body.</li>
<li>Practice in front of a mirror to refine the circular hip action.</li>
<li>The Mooch is a slow, controlled movement not meant to be done fast.</li>
<li>Focus on soft footwork to maintain a smooth and relaxed flow.</li>

<p>COURSE: hip-action</p>
<p>FOCUS: This lesson focuses on the grind, a rotational hip swing variation, with the goal of practicing it in place, adding steps, and exploring exaggerated and traveling versions.</p>
<p>TIP & TRICKS: <ul>
<li>Start with feet under hips and swing hips rotationally, bringing one hip back as the other swings forward.</li>
<li>When stepping, roll through the foot from ball to heel for a soft, gradual weight transfer.</li>
<li>Practice against a wall to keep the upper body facing forward and minimize movement.</li>
<li>For the exaggerated grind, stretch the ribs forward as the hip swings back to create resistance.</li>
<li>Allow the back leg to rotate outwards naturally when performing a bigger hip swing.</li>
<li>Travel the grind by stepping slightly forward or backward to create walking variations.</li>
</ul></p>
<p>REMEMBER: <ul>
<li>Keep the movement fluid and subtle, with all action happening from the belly button down.</li>
<li>Maintain a split weight stance to facilitate the hip swing and leg adjustments.</li>
<li>Use energy from the ground through the foot and leg to drive the hip motion.</li>
<li>The grind can be adapted in size and direction for different variations and challenges.</li>

<p>COURSE: hip-action</p>
<p>FOCUS: This lesson focuses on performing knee rocks by dropping one hip inward while keeping the leg aligned, inspired by Elvis's style, with the goal of mastering hip-initiated movement and rhythm variations.</p>
<p>TIP & TRICKS: <ul>
<li>Start with feet slightly wider than hip width and soften the knees.</li>
<li>Drop one hip inward toward the body's center line while keeping the leg aligned.</li>
<li>Allow the opposite hip to twist back naturally as you drop the other hip.</li>
<li>Initiate the movement from the hips to ensure internal rotation.</li>
<li>Practice alternating sides by dropping one hip and returning to neutral before switching.</li>
<li>Play with rhythms like every beat, every two beats, or quick-quick-slow patterns.</li>
</ul></p>
<p>REMEMBER: <ul>
<li>The movement is initiated from the hips, not just the legs.</li>
<li>It's anatomically natural for the opposite hip to twist slightly when one hip drops.</li>
<li>Keep the leg, knee, and foot aligned as the hip turns inward.</li>
<li>Rhythm can be varied based on the music to enhance the dance style.</li>
<li>The move is simple but allows for creative rhythm play to match different tempos.</li>

<p>COURSE: hip-action</p>
<p>FOCUS: This lesson focuses on performing hip rolls, starting with internal hip movements and progressing to continuous, flowing circles that can be done in place or while traveling forward.</p>
<p>TIP & TRICKS: <ul>
<li>Drop the hip in and imagine drawing a big circle on the floor with a pencil pointing down from your hip.</li>
<li>Transfer your weight onto the leg as you complete the circle to smoothly transition to the next roll.</li>
<li>Tap the leg slightly in front of you when dropping the hip to travel forwards while circling.</li>
<li>Keep the leg relaxed and let the movement initiate from the hip joint, not the knee.</li>
<li>Adjust the speed and size of the circle to vary the move, from small and fast to big and slow.</li>
<li>Practice the rolls in place, traveling, and with different circle sizes to build versatility.</li>
</ul></p>
<p>REMEMBER: <ul>
<li>The action should come from the hip joint to maintain proper alignment and fluidity.</li>
<li>Each step should flow into the next without stopping for a continuous, graceful movement.</li>
<li>The size of the circle determines the style, similar to the difference between a tilt and a swing.</li>
<li>Weight transfer is key to linking hip rolls seamlessly from one leg to the other.</li>
<li>Relaxation in the leg and hip helps achieve a natural, beautiful roll without stiffness.</li>
<li>This solo move allows for personal expression through variations in speed and circle size.</li>

<p>COURSE: hip-action</p>
<p>FOCUS: This lesson teaches a hip-lifting movement inspired by Josephine Baker, aiming to recreate her snake-like body motion through controlled hip actions and relaxed leg following.</p>
<p>TIP & TRICKS: <ul>
<li>Imagine puppet legs attached by strings to lift the hips from side to side.</li>
<li>Roll through the foot when stepping to gradually transfer weight for better control.</li>
<li>Keep the legs soft and relaxed, allowing them to follow the hip movement naturally.</li>
<li>Add a small leg flourish at the end for a nicer shape if desired.</li>
<li>Play with rhythm by adjusting the speed and size of the hip lifts.</li>
</ul></p>
<p>REMEMBER: <ul>
<li>The action originates from the hips, not the legs, to avoid kicking and maintain fluidity.</li>
<li>Maintain a stable upper body while feeling a stretch from the hips to the ribs during the movement.</li>
<li>Focus on the feeling of the hips lifting from side to side to achieve the snake-like effect.</li>
<li>Use proper posture and balance, such as leaning forward slightly for blues posture.</li>

<p>COURSE: hip-action</p>
<p>FOCUS: This lesson teaches a snake hips move inspired by Earl Snake Hips Tucker, focusing on combining hip lifts with foot rolls to create a smooth, flowing motion.</p>
<p>TIP & TRICKS: <ul>
<li>Imagine strings attached to your hips being pulled up while keeping the front of your shoe stuck to the floor.</li>
<li>Roll around the edge of the shoe as the hip lifts, preventing the leg from coming off the floor.</li>
<li>Step on one leg while lifting the opposite hip, then roll in and change weight seamlessly.</li>
<li>Practice in front of a mirror to refine the hip action, leg rolling, and smoothness.</li>
<li>Play with the tempo by slowing down or speeding up the move to master control.</li>
</ul></p>
<p>REMEMBER: <ul>
<li>Aim for a seamless, snake-like flow by integrating the hip lift and step into one smooth motion.</li>
<li>Keep the upper body still to maintain focus on the hips and avoid distracting movements.</li>
<li>The move combines elements from puppet hips, Josephine Baker, and knee rocks for a unique hip action.</li>

<p>COURSE: hip-action</p>
<p>FOCUS: This lesson focuses on hip tilts and circles as a foundational exercise for hip isolations, with the goal of improving control and adding styling to dance moves.</p>
<p>TIP & TRICKS: <ul>
<li>Imagine your pelvis as a bowl of water and tip it to each side, front, and back to practice tilting.</li>
<li>Keep your hips stationary under your shoulders while tilting to isolate the movement.</li>
<li>Bend your knees softly and let your back heel lift for stability when adding hip circles to a low stance.</li>
<li>Maintain a stable upper body so hip movements are hidden from view.</li>
<li>Practice hip circles while walking, adjusting the speed to match your steps or the music.</li>
</ul></p>
<p>REMEMBER: <ul>
<li>Hip tilts involve moving the pelvis without shifting its position in space.</li>
<li>Combining tilts in all directions creates smooth hip circles for better isolation.</li>
<li>Regular practice of these exercises enhances hip flexibility and control.</li>
<li>Use hip circles as a styling element to add flair to basic dance moves like walking or bending.</li>

<p>COURSE: hip-action</p>
<p>FOCUS: This lesson focuses on developing swing in the hips by imagining them as a heavy ball attached to a rope-like spine, with the goal of applying this swing to basic steps and walks for a softer movement.</p>
<p>TIP & TRICKS: <ul>
<li>Imagine your hips as a bowling ball and your spine as a rope to initiate swing from the sternum.</li>
<li>Keep the spine long and relaxed while swinging side to side, forwards, backwards, or in circles.</li>
<li>Practice swing on a basic step by allowing hips to swing side to side without exaggeration.</li>
<li>Add swing to a walk by transferring weight each beat as the hip swings over.</li>
<li>Avoid using muscles to force hip movement; keep it free and soft.</li>
</ul></p>
<p>REMEMBER: <ul>
<li>Swing can be adjusted in size but should always maintain a relaxed and long spine.</li>
<li>The technique softens movement edges compared to moving hips as a block.</li>
<li>Initiate swing from the upper body to involve both spine and hips.</li>
<li>Focus on keeping the side long to prevent crunching or shortening space.</li>

<li>Keep weight in the front of the feet to prevent it from shifting to the heels.</li>
<li>For option one, tap the leg behind as you swing back, transferring minimal weight depending on music speed.</li>
<li>For option two, open the hip slightly while swinging back, ensuring the focus remains on the butt, not the legs.</li>
<li>Practice with soft knees and feet under the hips to maintain stability during the swing.</li>
<li>Adjust timing and pulse based on the music, playing with funky or smoother variations.</li>
</ul></p>
<p>REMEMBER: <ul>
<li>The funky butt emphasizes a backward hip swing, not a tuck or isolation, keeping the spine long.</li>
<li>Focus should be on the butt movement, with legs positioned under the hips without overemphasizing leg taps.</li>
<li>Weight distribution and hip opening are optional adjustments that depend on musical tempo and personal style.</li>
<li>Maintain forward shoulders and weight to enhance the swinging motion and prevent imbalance.</li>
</ul></p>

<p>COURSE: hip-action</p>
<p>FOCUS: This lesson teaches the 'Four Corners' move, focusing on hip rotation and movement, building from a basic step to add layers like hip pushes and scoops.</p>
<p>TIP & TRICKS: <ul>
<li>Start with weight on the right and do two-count basics in place.</li>
<li>Add rotation by facing corners without collecting the leg under the body.</li>
<li>Incorporate a hip push when rotating to each corner.</li>
<li>Add a scoop around the back as you transfer weight to the other leg.</li>
<li>Practice with arms to visualize the ribbon or box shape for guidance.</li>
<li>Travel slightly forward by leaving the foot in front instead of bringing it back.</li>
</ul></p>
<p>REMEMBER: <ul>
<li>Keep hips heavy and relaxed with knees bent for a soft, swinging motion.</li>
<li>Avoid popping heels up; keep them on the floor for stability.</li>
<li>Use the 'deflate button' imagery to release tension and relax the body.</li>
<li>Play with the size of the swing to vary the move from subtle to large.</li>
<li>Transition into the move from basics either by scooping or with a hip push.</li>
<li>Dance in front of a mirror to check form and avoid unnecessary movements.</li>
