    This is brilliant! I'm an overweight 50 year old truck driver that can do the running man easily now.

    Well my 18 year old brain is stuck in this 70 year old body but I’m determined to learn some of these steps. Really good cardio workout. I’ve got the running man down after 2 days but it is rough and clumsy. Practice, practice, practice. Thanks for this video, really helpful.

      Well that beats my 18 year old brain in a 50 year old body. Mine apparently decided that I *needed* to learn the running man and how to unicycle...2020 lockdown has a lot to answer for.

      46 YO man apparently thinking the same as others. I will wait for the day to pull it out of the back pocket and when I throw it down it’s going to be totally awesome. I also do it as fun cardio. Rock on my dudeskies.

    By far in a way the best tutorial I’ve watched on running man. You will have noticed Emylee that it ain’t all 20yr old folks learning from you - like the 70 year old and 50 year old trucker, I’m 59 but have had your tutorial on for 2 hours rewinding constantly and (1) you’ve really improved my running man so thanks and (2) what a workout!!!! Brilliant work - many thanks

  • @microcosm95

    I can't tell you how many tutorials I've seen, how many times I've seen videos of people saying "the running man is so easy to master" while I'm in my room making my attempt at the running man and feeling like a wobbly, stomping troll.
    This is THE tutorial which I think will finally bring me to my breakthrough. I am not a dancer but years ago when I first saw your shuffling videos, I knew I wanted to look like that and be able to dance like you do. If I can do this, my confidence will be so much higher 🥰 thank you Emylee!

  • @Bishoujo8

      @moodsofkiwi9285 3 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      I’m struggling with these too! I’ve watched her video a couple of times but I’m still not sure how to fix it. I can keep the back foot flatter if my stance is narrower. But the bending the knee is tricky.

    #4 is sooo me! No wonder I look a bit "off" when I'm doing it and not as cool-smooth looking as how you and the other dancers do it. The way you are extremely detailed -- rather than just a show and tell (which may work for some people) -- is very helpful to someone like me who needs both detailed verbal AND visual instructions. Thank you sooo much for this tutorial

So be well all, as I can only imagine if we all keep up this dance, it should do everything to boost our immune systems against Covid-19, while those feel good endorphins are exploding thruout our heads. It could bring so many people together again in one worldwide Shuffle to celebrate 🎉

    Been shuffling for over a decade and I can say this is probably one of the best videos I've seen for basics. There are so many dancers now that are making money off of tips and tutorials that are BS, but this actually breaks it down in detail. Good shit!
    Edit - not sure if it's intentional, but the kick forward is a part of toprock and makes a good transition when doing footwork

  • @mrpotatostick
    @mrpotatostick ปีที่แล้ว

    Thanks for the awesome tutorial! I took some notes to remember the helpful tips:
    • land with a bend in the knees to avoid the extra bounciness involved when the leg straightens
    • The bounce between beats should be as small as possible and just high enough to overcome the friction against the floor
    • Think about keeping your head as level as possible (like you’re balancing something on your head)
    • Be on the balls on your feet when you push off to prevent heaviness, but keep your feet flat especially the back foot
    • emphasize STEPPING DOWN instead of kicking down to create a more natural look
