[MultiIdontgetit]

I hope these girls are actors, otherwise they are some of the lamest teens out there

[bluchickengirl17337]

@MultiIdontgetit Knowing hand clapping games doesn't make you lame. Just something to learn when you're bored. But, in this video they seem pretty boring but I doubt they are like this off of the camera. They are probably just camera shy.

[Elementl19]

you guys are good at that. my friend does it all the time so i finally get to do it with her

[HAPPYKAT926]

[66alicecullen]

[maianhtran]

The whole point of sevens, besides keeping time and doing in sync, is that there's seven rhythms (seven beats total) all together. You did four. You're missing three.

[EricGreenop]

@maianhtran I've been doing this game for 3 years and never have heard of there being seven different patterns. If you know the missing three, could you share them? Would love to be able to teach the whole thing to my groups.

[maianhtran]

@EricGreenop Yah sure. I'd video tape it but I'm stuck at work so I can't. I'll use "slap" to mean the slap on the table, clap and snap are obviously clap and snap. The rhythms these girl use are the ones I use, just in a little different order. The first three are right. Then the fourth one that I use is slap-clap-snap-clap-snap-clap-­slap. Then I do the fourth one (which would be my fifth one) that they use. The sixth one is a little complicated. Slap the table

[maianhtran]

@EricGreenop , then place your left hand above your right (palm down) and raise your right hand to "clap" it. Lower your right hand to slap the table. Slap your left hand back on the table. Then place your right hand above your left (palm down) and raise your left hand to "clap" it. Lower your left to slap the table and then slap your right hand back on the table. It makes a cool rhythm after you get used to the steps

[maianhtran]

@EricGreenop (if it's really really confusing, you can e-mail me and I can try to clarify more). The seventh step is easier than the sixth. Slap-clap, then slap the inside of your right elbow with your left hand, clap, slap the inside of your left elbow with your right hand, clap, and then finally a slap on the table. Again, you would do all rhythms twice, and then repeat backwards when you finished with the seventh one. Anddd if you're still confused, e-mail me :)

[EricGreenop]

@maianhtran Thanks so much for the new patterns! They're very fun to try and I eagerly await teaching this years group of students!

[maianhtran]

@EricGreenop Haha I'm glad that it wasn't too confusing to understand!

[bluchickengirl17337]

@maianhtran Actually they did 5. Because near the end of the video they said you can add one more step. Well, can you give me a video of all of the steps?

[missambernicole11]

haha. i know this but we did it at a church camp and it is MUCH more complicated. but im sur u girls can do it. it actually took one of my friends 4 years to learn it thoug!! haha not to brag, but i got it in 45 minutes

[02sabrinar]

how do you remember it?! :o

[mikeslittleprincess]

dang yall da bomb

[Ronado30]

Thank u for teacher me... i loved it... I will teach my students here in Brazil...

[Goldengirl159]

what do you mean you work your way down? as in 7 to 6 all the way to 1?

[lalajuju68]

@Goldengirl159 no, like at the last step ,after u do that then do step 3 again then 2 then 1, work your way down to step 1 and do step 1!

[lovlygirl567]

Theres not only one more but i believe there are 50 combos in this whole game. and kids are constanlty coming up with new ones

[dolphin111698]

[sakurafanmariah]
