I really appreciate that you remind us how long it takes to learn these basics! The self-imposed expectation to get it in the first viewing of the video is impossible, so the reminder in the middle was very helpful, especially because I found the going back is really difficult for me. Thank you!
There's definitely a lot of pressure to "get it right" immediately, but the body takes time to learn even the simplest of things and you'll always find something you missed when you go back over a video again later. I still do every time I learn a new choreography!
I actually wanna be a idol
I know you might think this is stupid
But this has been my dream since childhood
So I am taking these dance classes
These videos are really helpful
Especially when you remind us we can't get it in first go
I dont think any dream is stupid and I'm glad that I can help 😊
@@PinkKPopAcademy Thank you for your support ☺️☺️
I don't get it a lot😔
I have the same dream but my parents don’t think I can do it so I am learning by watching TH-cam videos
@@SiningStarr good luck ❤ how’s it going now?
@@creekaura I’m better at dancing still going for it 💕 now I know I want to be under jyp entertainment thanks for believing me ⭐️
Thank you! Your instructions were clear and easy to follow. The pacing was great. I also appreciated the continual reminders to keep my back straight, etc. Your reminders were so perfectly timed it was like you could actually see me starting to forget the correct position 😂
I remember needing reminders non stop when I was new, so I'm glad to be putting the past to good use 😂
thank you so much for this! i'm unable to attend real classes so this truly helps so much thank u
You're very welcome! Glad to be able to help you on your dance journey! 💕
This channel is a gem I am happy to find a channel to help me through my journey
And I am so happy to be helping you on your journey! 💕
It's been my dream to dance since I was little but due to things like my ADHD and depression which were undiagnosed for a very long time, I never felt like I could or like it was meant for me. Getting into kpop really changed my life and made me see that I can do anything I put my mind to if I try. I am so glad I found this program to start me off on my journey! It seems like it will be an awesome fit for me and I'm really excited to finally be doing this for myself!
Hey, I also have ADHD and was undiagnosed for most of my life. K-Pop was a huge turning point for me too! If you haven't seen it, I have this video about being a dance teacher with ADHD and ASD th-cam.com/video/CkFu3TOxmtI/w-d-xo.html
Welcome on the journey, you deserve to do things like this for yourself, and I'm always here to support you!
As someone who also had undiagnosed adhd and depression for a long time, I resonate with this comment so freaking much. Kpop has also helped me so so much and has motivated me to try things like teaching myself how to dance. It's tough out here but we got this, girlie! ❤
i have a similar story !! i was always really frustrated at myself because i could never get myself to start
Never gonna get tired of telling you how helpful and great your tutorials are.✨Also really big thank you for always thinking about our bodies and encouraging us to be mindful and avoid injuries!💕💕💕 I'm so happy I discovered your channel! 😻You are full of positive attitude and I feel really comfortable learning from you. Thanks for giving us super comfortable safe space both physically and mentally. I felt really bad and stupid about not being able to pick up a choreo. I also used to have sore muscles and back pain whenever I tried to pick up a choreo from other youtubers. Obviously as an absolute beginner just following along and repeating the movements in a slow tempo without really understanding what I'm doing wasn't enough for my body and level. The moment I included your basics in my everyday activities (usually after my morning yoga) I saw so much improvement in my mobility and coordination and less pain during dancing. Now I'm actually starting to understand things better and be less awkward with my movements. You also encourage me to be kinder to myself. Thank you so much! 💕
Yay!!!!!! Well done on your hard work on those basics, that's great that they're helping you to improve so much, you are a model student 😊
When I was a beginner I couldn't learn from practice videos or tutorials either so I wanted to make videos for people like me because everyone deserves to have the chance to learn how to dance in a fun and safe way.
I love hearing that the videos are a safe space, that's exactly what I hope to create and I'm so glad to hear that that's your experience 😊
should we keep doing these bounce for weeks instead of learning any kpop song's choreography ?
and will these bounce techniques help to make the dance look beautiful instead of awkward ?
Bounces definitely help the dance to become less awkward, I think they're the most important thing for creating smooth dancing. You can practice bounces and continue to learn choreography, I use bounces as a warm up at the start of classes when I teach choreography, so that can be a good way to do both! Spend maybe 10 minutes on your bounces everyday before doing other dances as a warm up and see if that helps you 😊
Thanks for teaching these crucial basics, I already feel like it's going to be super helpful in the future!
Found your videos on my search to find dance foundation classes online (for any style!) that are actually absolute beginner friendly and these are the most comprehensive effective useful helpful understandable videos that I've found yet. I really struggle to learn and am neurodivergent and the way you communicate and emphasize different things and reassure things about the process is amazing and I feel so confident like I can't actually get to where I want to be as a dancer. Most dance videos I have to pause every 2 seconds to rewind and try again and then still don't get it but here I only had to rewind a couple times and I actually got it and made progress! I don't feel lost anymore- I feel capable finally. Thank you so much!
Yay!! I'm so glad my videos are helpful for you! I'm also ND and I think that when I teach dance in the way that my brain processes, it seems to work really well for other ND people too, which makes me really happy. 😊
I'm especially glad that you're feeling confident and capable, that's awesome! Well done on all your hard work so far and I hope you'll keep going on your dance journey. Let me know if I can be of any help 💕
i feel like im in actual dance class lmaoo this is rlly helpful
Perfect lesson !!! Perfect teacher !!!
Was searching for some good kpop dance learning platforms for beginners. And came across this programme. This is so good...thank you so much
Thank you, I'm so glad you like it 🥰
Kudos 🙇🏻 Never know these before. That’s why I look funny when I dance. Thank you so much.
tysm i really needed this to start my dancing journey. i’ve had no idea where to start and this is perfect!
This is the second time I will be using your videos for physical therapy. When you do videos that involve challenging core and leg/arm moves, it helps my clients improve their motor performance. Thanks for the videos
Wow, that's amazing! I'm so glad my videos can be used for helping with physio 😊
Thank u so much for this !!
Hi 😊 There is this video about popping basics: th-cam.com/video/iJK2cwaIqjw/w-d-xo.html and I will be doing an updated version after the 30 day program!
Thank you!
thank you for the lesson! Your instructions were clear and helpful:)
Thanks for watching, I'm glad it was helpful 😊
I appreciate that you take time for us and make such useful videos

Thanks💜
Thank yoyu❤❤🙏🙏🙏🌟🌟🌟
You are doing really hard work only to teach us didu 😍...... thanks a lot for these basics.....love you a lot di ❣️......hope this Gorjeous channel reach to the millions of subscribers soon 😍🤞
Thank you so much 🥰
Can u tell me some easy kpop dances to learn after learning the basics pls
Thank u so muchhh♥️♥️♥️
TT Twice, What is love Twice, Very Very Very IOI,....
I'd like to add Signal by Twice, Lovesick Girls by Blackpink and Cherry by Itzy
I recommend Cherry the most since it's choreo goes over almost everything said in the this and the next video "footwork basics".
man those forward back bounce drops are so tough >< i tend to start losing my balance with those. i can do them ok in the up position but when going down, things start to go downhill lol i'm definitely going to need to practice a lot ^^;
Take it nice and slow until your body gets used to the feeling and can maintain balance and control and then speed up bit by bit. You'll get it in no time 😊
Well done on your work today! 👏🏻
OMG i love you
Pls make a video on how to start dancing on k pop from nothing (begginers)
Pls my request pls ur videos r really helpful 🙏🙏
these are actually basics! so it's very important to learn them and practice them! so please learn these before any pop dances so you can improve way better and quicker ;) good luck on your dance journey
Thank you very much.i'm trying to your lessons everyday.because i'm a beginner and i want to learn it and get some advance before next 3 months 🙂 is it possible ?
If you practice everyday you will definitely see improvement in 3 months. Be patient with yourself too, you wont be a master in 3 months but your basics will be a lot sharper and stronger, and you will definitely find a lot of moves easier and hopefully more fun!
These were so hard 😭 like it's more like my body can physically do it but trying to keep the details like back straight and shoulders in/out makes me malfuction 💀 i guess it's just my body and mind not used to being coordinated? And the walking one at the end was also hard to do, but this is only day one, tomorrow is a new day to re-learn the steps!
Everything takes time for the body to get used to. Once your body gets used to the overall shape, the details will become easier to add in and process. 😊 Tomorrow is always a new day and I hope you're still dancing today too!
@@PinkKPopAcademy You're so nice 😭 So far, i've been repeating this video along with the stretches too, still kinda stiff and awkward but yes, i'm still trying! Thank you for your videos! I enjoy your shorts too! It'd be so cool to see more dance covers from you!! 💙💚
very helpful and needed!
thank you so much !! this is really helpful
Idk if my comment went through so I'll just rewrite it (sorry if it did go through).
So I'm having issues with the back bounce drops. I can go forward but I can't go back without going on my tippy toes (and it hurts a lot when I try to put my heels down) How can I avoid this? Should I consider getting my ankle flexibility up before attempting them or is there a quicker and easier solution?
Hi 😊 So the best thing for you to do in this situation would be to just do the "back" part very small, just lean back as far as you can with your heels on the ground, even if its just a tiny movement. Start there and as you do them small your body will adjust with practice and you'll be able to make them bigger. I wasn't able to do them very big at first either so don't worry!
Perfect 🥰 💞
Thank you so much for these videos 😊
You're welcome 😊💕
This may be a stupid question but is this series for men as well? Im interested in learning Kpop dances but strictly the male groups like BTS. Thank you! This is a good workout haha
The series is designed to be suitable for everyone, so there are some boy group and some girl group choreographies in the 30 day program, but the basics are useful for both styles. If you're doing the 30 day program you can always replace the girl choreo days with other tutorials from my channel instead like BTS Boy With Luv or Stray Kids Thunderous or Easy.
Please I can't do the forward bounce drop. Do you have any advice ? Is it due to a lack of calf flexibility or what ?
Hi, can you describe what's happening in your body when you try it? Then I can work out what you need to do 😊
@@PinkKPopAcademy Thank you so much for responding. So when I tried to do it my body just naturally goes up. I can't go more down.
@@zarouallina9803 Ah I see. Its probably a mix of two things. Firstly it could be leg flexibility as you mentioned and secondly its probably that your body isn't used to dropping down suddenly as is afraid of losing balance or falling. Practice by bending your knees into that position and doing the forward back movement there for a while first. Then when your body is more comfortable being there and doing the move low down, practice the drop but very slowly, leaning forward and bending the knees together. This will help to stretch out the muscles bit by bit and also show your body that the move is safe 😊
@@PinkKPopAcademy Ok thank you so much !! Love your program btw
Not gonna lie, I feel a bit like a chicken when doing that forward backward walk xD
I'll keep practicing until it feels natural though ^^
Chicken is good! Some of my in person students actually call it the "pink chicken" so that means you're doing it well! It will definitely become and feel more natural with practice, you got this 😊
What if the "down" part from the basic up-down bounce burns the lower leg section (between knees and feet, but not on the calf. It's kinda more frontal)
If you're feeling it more in the front of the lower leg, then you're probably leaning the upper body a little too far forward when doing the down. This is a natural reaction as the body tries to work out where the shape is supposed to be. Focus on pulling the abs in more and try to keep your balance as centered as possible. If you have a mirror to practice with, try to match the front of your abs in line with the heels of your feet, this should help keep the line centered. If you like imagery, imagine a giant hand is squishing you down from your head. So you fold inwards like an accordion (shoulders would end up folded over knees and hips against heels) rather than leaning forwards or back. I hope that helps and if not let me know and we can try something else 😊

Hi. Thank you for making this video ! Any tips on associating this bouncing to actual dance/ choreography ? Had a hard time learning this. What it looks like if one doesn’t dance with bounce skill ? Want to visualise the difference
Hi! The vast majority of K-Pop dances have bounce in them. Bounce gives the dance a cool, hiphop or energetic vibe. It helps to move quickly through footwork and gives your body momentum to move between large shapes more comfortably and easily.
When a dance doesn't use bounce skills, its usually more angular, sharp and flowing instead.
Some examples of bounce heavy dances are Baekhyun's Candy, which I use as the tutorial for practicing bounces in the 30 Day Beginner Program: th-cam.com/video/P8iZyk8yIqQ/w-d-xo.html
New Jean's dances (like OMG for example) also heavily rely on bounce skills as they have an old skool hip hop style in their choreography.
@@PinkKPopAcademy thank you for getting back !! Have more idea on this now after hearing from you ❤️
Are these videos mirrored ?
I can do the moves good, but the moves kept repeating on my head because my mind is not comfortable picturing the moves. Do you have any tips to stop those?
I'm not sure what you mean, do you mean that the moves are in your head, even when you're not dancing?
@@PinkKPopAcademy yes
Day two.
Welcome back! 😊
@@PinkKPopAcademy god! You're so sweet!! 😭😭
I promise I'll be consistent ✋
How long should I practice to master these in a week?
More than how long you should practice, it's about how focused the practice is. If you take some time every day, and as you practice, really focus in on the muscles each move uses and how it feels, and how to make the moves bigger and stronger.
Look in the mirror and match the shapes, see where you can improve them each time. You can also film yourself doing them and see how it looks from the outside too to help improve your form and power.
So...is there an stretches you can recommend for flexibility? I found it really hard to go back without lifting my heel off the ground.
The best way to build flexibility for that move is to do it at the point where your heel doesn't come off the ground. It might make the move very small, but that's OK to start with. Keeping the line straight from shoulder to knee is more important, even if the overall move is small. Keep practicing it small where your heel is comfortable and then make it a little bit bigger so the heel is still on the ground but definitely stretching a bit. Then when that much becomes comfortable, make the move a little bigger, and so on until the body stretches out to where you want it. This will take time, depending on your original flexibility it could take a few days of practice or a few weeks, but if you keep at it, your body will adjust 😊
