- I have my own system for teaching the footwork. This is it. It involves breaking everything down into two types of two-beat elements.

"It doesn't matter" is probably the best advice you could give anyone learning anything new that doesn't involve a firearm.
Or explosives. Or wild animals. Or noxious chemicals. Or considerable altitudes or depths.
Everything else, though, pretty much.
It doesn't matter if you're using the crowded city roads to do your Formula One tryout sessions.
What could possibly go wrong...
Allahu Ackbar!
Exactly! ISIS is misunderstood!
They just wanted to join the F1 tournaments!
Race cars of peace.
I keep tripping over my battle-axe when I do my rock-step. What am I doing wrong?
Hold the axe near the head on 1 and 2, then let your forward movement carry the head forward as you slide your hand down the grip on 3 and 4.
Hi Matt! Thanks for your question, and we are working on finding you an answer.
Thank you again for contacting us! I can't resolve your problem, so i will be transferring you to another department. Thank you!
Hello Matt! I'm here to resolve any and all problems you might have.
It seems you are a knobhead!
Thank you for contacting us. and I'm glade we where able to help you with your issue!
it's really more an etiquette thing...just leave it at the door with your broadsword and dagger...[though the dagger may be carried in case of recalcitrant follows]
When rocking out, your axe should be held in the air triumphantly.
How else are you going to get Eddie Van Halen?
@@lindybeige That sounds an awful lot like the Lancre stick and bucket dance
This footwork is far more superior compared to the HEMA footwork, if you do this during a duel you'll confuse the enemy and win without much effort.
And if you're really good you might even seduce your enemy.
00Trademark00 Sounds like a bad roll in dnd
@Ezekiel: Definitely if you're fighting a gelatinous blob.
I gotta say Lindy, you're adding a little sophistication to my life one video at a time. I love the broad range of topics you cover and the fact that you do so many things, never dull. Keep at it.
I can't believe Lindy stole my dancing style near the end. I expect royalties.
We need more of this, please! I love lindybeiged Lindyhop and fancy quite a bit of a lindyhopped Lindybeige as well!
BRILLIANT - I agree always remember my Brother saying its all in the shoulders and at a disco he never moved his feet ! just his shoulders to the beat and he still looked cool -God Bless him RIP brother. Loved video.
Im actually glad Lindy touched on this subject again. It honestly is because of this channel I've checked out some Lindyhop and i gotta say i like the jazzyness.
This is brilliant, I love the variation in your content.
the chillest Lindy Hop instruction u could find 😆
So i have known how to dance Lindy hop all along! Just move the knees a little bit!
More of this :) it's always nice to learn something new from someone who is obviously enjoying themselves, precisely the reason i watch this channel!
I have been waiting for this , it was an inevitability.
This video confirms to me that it really doesent matter what Lindybeige uploads I will watch it
Strangely enough dancing and learning balance and correct footwork is critical for good balance in all martial arts plus you can cut a rug at the after party
I think is would be confusing as hell if you use it when fighting.
It's almost a sketch, it's so funny.
Thanks for the tips
Hell yeah. Let's see some more dance vids.
I was hoping that Laura would make an appearance... She's amazing!
I really do enjoy these dancing videos.
I randomly search things I’m interested in, and bam as always good ol’ Lindybeige is there!
i did not know that the sword guy does dance but i'm here for it now
That mop on your head is looking good!
Title: Lindy hop basic footwork
Conclusion: It doesn't matter
Nice 👌
Love this video you are a man of. Many talents
OMG I just gived the upvote for the papillon!!!
So (starting with weight on the right foot) it's left right left freeze, right left right freeze. So it's left right left right left right continuously, but with pauses. Then add dimensions from there. Cheers mate :) I could have just said 1 2 3 pause on a loop.
You dance like HELL, just let that SINK In.
came for the war, stayed for the dances
Fascinating. But I think I`d need a little something to drink if I should try out what I just learned.
i do an almost entirely different type of dancing (melbourne shuffle), and while one could swear it's entirely footwork alone, all the same points apply - and sometimes i do just bounce on the spot - usually for 4 or 2 beats; Doing nothing works so well that it's a dance move itself.
Was hoping for a full on demonstration with music, but fun video nonetheless. That being said I don't dance, but you remind me Graham Chapman playing King Arthur so I find all your videos fun.
i like the "whatever" move
Thanks, that's usefull. I'll try it in my next sparring session
Thanks for that, really enjoyed the video!
This is exactly how I dance. Only I don't really move my feet too much. At all.
Brilliant :)
Better see a video of you dancing in armour as soon it is finish
This guy is fit.
This is very nicely done but I would like it more if there was a bird strutting her stuff with you. After all that is the whole point of lindy hop, or so my late father who was a keen 1940's hopper told me.
OOPS! You did get a girl in after I made my ill advised comment!
wtf? subscribed just learned how to dance thank u
I'm glad this video exists. I need to get back into lindy so that I can stay away from the mood eater that is Overwatch.
Great instruction, but a different angle would maybe be clearer as to which foot goes where!
lindybeige she clearly likes you , we need more cyclops 3d vision videos btw
I read this as "Lindy hip hop basic footwork"
I don't know why people think dance and military are unrelated. Officers had to know how to dance (with their wives) up to only a few decades ago.
That's more related to officers traditionally being middle and upper class.
Would you make a video about armour you wear here, I didn't recognize that pattern.
But you do need the right steps to find the legendary lost treasure of Melee Island.
I love your teaching. However it's hard to distinguish left and right foot. Maybe it's the loose black pants
I am not even interested in dancing at all, but if you are the one talking about something, it somehow becomes interesting... 😅
6:25 Lindy hop meets bunny hop ;-D
Finland!
Not gonna lie, when I saw the title I thought this was a dance you had invented based on your channel name 😂
Нормально задвигает )
Do sword dancing. NOW!
This has something to do with tanks or the SAS, I just have to figure out the connection.
shes cute as f
Where might one sign up?
Haha!! that's funny, I always explain this footwork theory to beginners exactly like you here. Of course I know it is normal as it is how it works, but I was so pleased to see that you also do bunny hops and standing-on-spot demonstration. I will now just show this clip after my class as it sums it all :))
Can you make videos of just you saying, "let me reassure you, everything is alright." because I got a large sense of comfort from that..
You've got it! /watch?v=9xgOwhfcxWg
hahahaha I was wondering why he made that video! The source is revealed!
@@drink__more__water .... I never knew this happened until you commented.
You are the master of the single take. Respect.
Talking about what he loves.
RaggedFlag Lindy loves everything he talks about :D Even if he talks about something he hates. "hate out of passion"
Thank you. Unusually, I did two takes of this, and then had a tough time picking between them, because they were exactly the same length and very similar in quality, even though the jokes and minor aspects of what I talked about were different.
@@lindybeige do a video of all the takes not used please Lloyd.
"99.972% of all footwork done in lindyhop belongs to either type A or type B"??
I'm suspicious of the validity of your quoted significant figures Nikolas.
Always question everything. Did you know that 86.4 % of all statistics are just made up on the spot?
Seventy-two per cent of people know that.
60% of the time, I hear that joke every time. ;-)
However, 100% of people quoting this very fact, have been medically proven to exercise a memory for Guinness adverts.
20% of all people believe Einstein said that
You have a dance named after you!?
Yes. It happened that way round. In 1927 they called it Lindy hop after me. I moisturise a lot.
He probably just has a terrible-looking portrait locked in his attic.
Sweating is the new moisturising routine.
Bora Başaran that's racist
You know too much.
feel like every time lindy makes a dance video his normal subscribers just sit awkwardly at the back of the room holding axes and wearing ww2 hats, while the dance community enters the channel for a video and leaves again.
I'm more of just a lloyd fan at this point who will just watch anything he makes regardless of what it's about.
I can still dance with my armour!… and my Axe!
"Never give a sword to a man who can't dance"
And the man in the back said "Everyone, Attack!" and it turned into a ballroom blitz!
I came for the military history and ended up doing my first Lindy Hop class yesterday. Love it! Cheers
Can the Lindy Hop not be done in Lindybeige's knitted jumper?.
The jumper must stay in Britain.
Bad things might happen.
Its national treasure at this point.
Oh dammit, I feel like I missed the first lesson and now I'm sitting in class trying to find someone who was on the first lesson and take their notes
I Don't even have legs, why am i even watching.
Don't worry it's 'armless!
no, its not, i hope you can see them holding hands.
Tu cia rimtai?
Vis delto yra Lindybeige fanu is Lietuvos. :)
Because this is the future of wheelchairs: th-cam.com/video/fRj34o4hN4I/w-d-xo.html
I have one and a half legs.
WHY ARE YOU DANCING WHAT I CAME HERE TO LEARN ABOUT THE ANCIENT WORLD AND HOW CYCLOPS CAN HAVE 3D VISION.
nice moves tho.
The 'Lindy" in 'Lindy Beige' is reference to the dance 'Lindy Hop". I first found his channel for the dancing, stayed for the swords.....
No no, you've got it all wrong. This is obviously some kind of ancient combat technique used by the romans.
Actually I discovered this channel long time ago by looking for Lindy Hop videos, but then I realized that Fire Arrows are also great!
fuck off
The joke
You
6:34 dude, that's just how I dance... simplifies everything.
Man! How many things can you do?
Five.
Lindybeige ya sure?
hmmm hes wearing beige HMM
hes dancing *lindy* hop HMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM
AlternateMusicAddict
D:,' *G A S P*
Purely a coincidence.
technically he could change his name to pogoblack about half way through the video.
Are you 'avin a laugh? Is he 'avin a laugh? Karl, is that you?
does video about swords then does video about dancing very themed channel i see
Wait until he does one about tanks and then another about a book he found in a sauna.
John La Duke and the beds. Don't forget the beds.
A video about how to make beige shirts, anyone? Or how to make playing with balloons more fun.
Headrock fuck, I've watched them all!
and then a video about D&D, then miniature ww2 figurines
I'd love to see both of you dancing a whole song. No explanations (maybe as captions) just a full-on dance.
I spent 20 tutorials believing that I'm a terrible dancer, and then he comes with his ''You don't need footwork!'' and ''It doesn't matter!'' and now I feel like I could compete in the Olympics 😂
Would the "Lindy hop" be better performed with a Bren gun or a Spandau?
A bren gun improves everything. It's a bit like cream.
Lindybeige cream doesn't improve everything. Try putting it in a fuel tank.
I can confirm. Czechnology!
Wesley Welch
Or a girl.
Given that the dancing he shows had always been called the Charleston, and the Lindy Hop is also a well defined different dance with overwhelmingly consistent nomenclature the spandau episode is analogous
i new this was coming .. even tho i would never participate in this normally MY LOYALTY IS UNWAVERING
ALL HAIL LINDYBEIGE FOLLOW TO YOUR DOOM
Until he says invade Russia, that's just madness.
a true renaissance man
4:30 aww I was hoping for Skallagrim
Now THAT's comedy!
I'm not much of a dancer but LindyBeige makes everything interesting.
The thumbnail reminds me of that page from Mr Bean's diary when he started taking dance classes in an attempt to impress Irma Gobb, the woman who works at Highbury district library. Anyone remember that book? I used to read it over and over as a youngster.
You will never know how much this has freed my thinking about swing style dancing. Thank you, thank you. I come from the south and southwestern part of the USA. The dancing styles in the southwestern part are dances that are basically the Texas Two Step and several variations of two step. Dances where if the steps aren't mirrored there will be pain. I could never do dancing like you demonstrate, I always prided myself on being able to follow anyone. I could learn the steps but I couldn't figure the cues one gets from the person leading. OMG! I don't have to. Basically if we are both doing A or B then if our steps aren't mirrored, step for step, so what. The occasional difference adds a little cool to it. I feel like Dorothy. It was there all the time.
A request if I may; a Ministry of Silly Walks Tutorial. You'll likely be sued but it'd be funny for the three minutes TH-cam didn't excoriate the footage.
It's one of my favourite dance styles to do. I like the zaniness to it, the aesthetic, the jazz/swing music and the overall freedom you feel with it.
I'v never done partner Lindyhop (never had a partner to do it with), but I love doing solo style. Like Al & Leon.
I'm sure these lessons could be applied to when wielding a longsword.
I hate dancing... except when Lloyd does it :D
I love this. Great advice! (I'm at the tuning my swing-out tension stage of life at the moment, so this )
video hits close to home)
Wish instructors would focus on weight changes rather than footwork. It would make it a lot easier to figure out how to lead/follow moves!
Read it wrong, came here for hip hop, saw Lindy hop, was not disappointed
skippidy floppy-da flappin'-do duppin'-ska pappin'-skippidaflippidafloppin'
I can’t dance but I like the dancing videos. Now that I know I can just jump a little or bend a the knee slightly I can now go and dance good ja.
Oh yeah! It's LINDYbeige, isn't it
I've no clue why this is entertaining, but yet again, you amaze me with your wide talents
The problem is, to be able to get away with those adaptations requires a very deep understanding of where you need to be on which beat to make it work. Sure, i can do anything I want for four beats, so long as i am in the correct orientation with my weight on my left foot at beat 5 for the next move.
There was a time I really wanted to learn to Lindy hop, complete with all the throws and aerials, but I never made it happen. Boo for me.
Lindybeige is definately the most versitile channel on the youtube.
0:44 - Does Lindy require special lenses to get all of his gigantic self into shot?
LindyBeige is the most scattered TH-cam Channel I watch.
Nice video. However, non-black trousers make it easier to see which leg is in the front/back
My method of learning the Lindy involved getting drunk before I tried it.
We called it the Jitterbug, but I did learn the proper Lindy in Brooklyn NY. (After getting drunk.)
Proof that I will watch literally anything provided that ur boi Lloyd is doing it
3:50 I can do the whatever! I'm already .1% of the way to being a dancer and that's good enough for me
What the heck am i watching and why am i enjoying it its just lindy going bap bap bap bi bap bom for 7 mins
