Drum and Bass Tutorial for Beginners - Kai

[xCrowellskiix]

Thanks man!!! Great tutorial this was the best one i found, i as well started with the melbourne shuffle and want to try new stuff and this tutorial helped me learn the x step in a matter of like 1 hour! Liked

[flmftw]

Alright prob won't babble to get to it this week but i will

[flmftw]

I'm having a hard time with moving my hips. Is there anything i can do to help them glide with the steps? I shuffle for years want to try something new!

[KaimanaFOHS]

@flmftw if you send me a video response, ill tell you everything you need to know!!

[IzzyChopChop]

This has helped me (:

[mdmh84]

Hey Kai, great video. I'm hoping you can help me with part of the dance. After a few weeks of practice i've manged to get to grips with the x-step in a straight line. However, i'm having problems doing to x-step where you kind of cross your legs, like in the part of your video from 1.16 to 1.27. I'm not sure what i'm doing wrong. Is it all in the hips?

[KaimanaFOHS]

@mdmh84 yes! the hips! the hips!! another tip for x step, try act like your a box, and those 4 corners are where your heel/toes are supposed to be, and use your abs to guide those hips!! and arms to make sure your not gonna fall or loose balance. Thanks a lot!

Keep dancing!

[MrChar05]

Great tutorial (y) But in all seriousness when I learnt how to x-step I didn't take a systematic approach, agreed if you learn these basic steps you can do pretty much anything, which in my case aloud me to somewhat invite my own style and be creative. Go nutssssssssss.

[Ana96Banana]

best tutorial i ever saw on youtube. thanks man :D

[GodMineSkillDude]

awesome, i started DnB yesterday and today i learned steps, x and the other one (no name) tnx very much dude :)

[peristeri91]

[ntinos164]

i am sorry kai and everyone, i was wondering if this dance is more difficult for tall people to be learned. you know i am 1.90 and slim and it feels kinda clumsy and oaf. what should i do?

[KaimanaFOHS]

@ntinos164 hey bro,

I see no problem with a tall guy DnBing at all, and all i really gotta say man is, just bring it!

KEEP DANCING NO MATTER WHAT

[FOHS]Kai

[KaimanaFOHS]

@ntinos164 and dont feel bad dude your alright dude

[Besnada]

@ntinos164 I am kinda overwheited but will that stop me from learning to dance DnB?Nope,so bring it on dude!

[back4mylife]

Mother fuc**** thank you :D

[TheSkellex]

Hey Kai,

your video acutally helped me a lot to learn this dance but I still have some major problems and I hope you can help me with that:

1. I dont really get the leg switching, everytime I try it I get out of the whole performance.

2. When I start dancing it seems very stupid because...I dont know it doesnt seem smooth.

I hope you can help me I really want to learn this :D

[KaimanaFOHS]

@TheSkellex Hey thanks man,

Though w/o a vid to see, its hard to tell what your having trouble with.

1. What will help you a LOT is to break everything down into small parts. How i did it, is by watching the clip of the transition over and over again, then practice it one step at a time until i get the move down.

then

2. Practice in the move in the mirror, film and watch myself do it, or watch others and try to do exactly the way do.

Hope this helps, keep dancing!!

[FOHSKai]

A tip for the X-step. It is a Toe-Heal-Toe-Heel Repeat. Start on toes of right foot. Bounce to heel of right foot. Bounce to toes of left foot. Bounce to heal of left foot. Bounce to toes of right foot. Repeat. I kept repeating toe, heel, toe, heel, toe, heel, toe, heel in my head while I practiced. Helped a ton. Epic tutorial btw.

[MegaNemanja97]

man this really help me.....i learn the x-step for 1 day ...this is so cool....(if i'm wrong somewhere sorry for bad english)

[lkoumbova]

nice i like it, but i don/t know how to switch legs in basic step :) please can u make video with it ???? its step in 1:30 can someone help me :) i wanna dance dnb and this step is important thanks for help :)))

[clamson18]

Im also going to say this is the best beginners tutorial i have seen! i got all of these steps down sadly before seeing this though... it would have been much easier with this! do you have anything a bit more advanced?

[darkhummy]

Nice tutorial. I have a question for you. When your dnb dancing, and you "hop" one of your legs backwards, do you hop the leg back or hop the leg back and also move back with the leg? as in your whole body? so like this /\ or this <--- |\

If that makes sense?

[KaimanaFOHS]

@darkhummy Yo, it depends on your style, for begginers you can move your whole body with your leg and its just fine, extra tip; if you want to execute your moves really smooth, use your abs/core and keep it tense. Keep your upper body as still as possible and your arms should only move for balance. When you feel a burn in your legs and core from the intensity you know your doing it right!

Keep on dancin!!!!
