Learn Hip Hop Dance: Kick Cross Step

Instructions 1. To do a kick cross step, start with a loose kick forward with your right foot. As you kick, make sure to do a slight bounce. While you&doing the kick, lean to your left. Your kick will go left, crossing in front of your left leg, and you&naturally catch yourself with that right foot. This should be a natural movement, not a forced one, so you shouldn&find yourself forcing anything. 2. Step to the left and forward with your left leg, uncrossing your legs. Adding Arm and Body Movements The kick cross step is primarily a footwork move, so you can also incorporate your arms and body into it. There are two parts to the arm movement. First, cross your right wrist over your left wrist in front of your stomach. After this, open your arms up and to both sides of you and snap your fingers on both hands. During this, rock back and forward repeatedly. When you cross your wrists or snap your fingers, you should be rocking back, and between these, you should be rocking forward. To incorporate these into the original move, cross your arms as you do the kick with the right foot. Keep your wrists crossed during the leg cross. When you&moving that left leg to step, uncross the wrists. When you step with the left foot, you should have your arms open while snapping those fingers. Other Direction You can also add a kick cross step going the other direction after you do the first one. To do this, do the kick with your left foot, the lean to your right, land on the left...
