|
|
<p>FOCUS: This lesson teaches the grind, a rotational hip swing movement, focusing on subtle variations and fluid execution, with applications in solo and partnered dancing.</p>
|
|
<p>TIP & TRICKS: <ul>
|
|
<li>Start with feet under hips and swing hips rotationally, keeping weight split and legs alternating straightening and bending.</li>
|
|
<li>Practice against a wall to keep the upper body facing forward while swinging the hips.</li>
|
|
<li>Roll through the foot from ball to heel for a soft step, transferring energy from the ground into the hips.</li>
|
|
<li>For an exaggerated grind, stretch the ribs forward as the hip swings back to create resistance.</li>
|
|
<li>Travel the grind by stepping slightly forward or backward each time while maintaining the hip swing.</li>
|
|
<li>In partnership, connect in close embrace and allow the connection point to roll across each other.</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 relaxed posture with shoulders slightly over the knees when grinding.</li>
|
|
<li>Hips swing back, not forward, during the grind movement.</li>
|
|
<li>The grind can be adapted for solo practice or partnered dancing with simple travel variations.</li>
|
|
</ul></p> |
