That actually isn't true. Elvis engineered the person he wanted to be by taking inspiration from everything he could and remixing it in his own flavor. Not just his music and dance moves but his mannerisms, ticks and appearance. He was socially really intelligent and knew how to craft a memorable image.
Elvis stole moves from black artist , and his singing style, his name was Otis Blackwell, he taught him the and the music , so your research, elvis was not create , nothing he did was his own, the song were from black artist .
@@richardwhite1343 in the milton berle performance there was a segment he was thrusting his hips in the slow motion. That's probably what got the grown ups pissed at him
@@nenabunena yeah, elvis's intimacy with his audience and how he moved his legs influenced how colored singers of the time would dance. Since Elvis grew up in an African-American neighborhood he swayed more into their culture, this also added to the major dislike of him as well as his of course sexual gestures during his early career years
Idk why people are roasting you. I'm in a professional show at a city theatre singing burning love and all shook up and I appreciate this work! Thank you.
Hi my son is a elvis fan and he has been moving like him for years before TH-cam was made also he taught him self by watching elvis from 50s on tv his favorite film is jail House rock
Bro you nailed it. Im doing a theater show that has an elvis impersonation and this has helped more than any other video. Hats off to you dude, you really got the character down
Kinda around the 6 minute mark. TBH, I never expected this video to get so many views. I just wanted to document the coaching session I had with a new cast member, which means the video itself is rather anti-climatic. Still, thanks for watching.
Every muscle movement in his body was in perfect natural motion to the music. Until you learn to let yourself go and FLOW with the music you'll never get it!
My school is doing Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat in the spring and I hope to play the Pharaoh (who is an Elvis type character). Thank you so much for making this video, it really helped!
I’m Pharaoh in a local production & I have no clue how to move like Elvis still. I don’t jive (plus Pharaoh’s Song is a deal slower than most of the songs you think of when you think of Elvis)
Thanks for this video, Really wish there were more videos like yours on how to do the fundamentals of a certain dance style. Helped me out since I'm trying how to properly do Elvis's rubber legs.
This is funny, but is hard to do the same as Elvis, we have all tried, if is not natural is not you! Just listen to Music and that opens your other senses. Be your self!
Of course! He was brand new to the show, so we needed to deal only in fundamentals of his body movement. We worked with music during actual rehearsals 🤙
This is video is specifically addressing the movement of Elvis early in his career (‘50s). I’d love for you to post a video of your own and show me how I can improve.
Hey dude ,you two guys are in the twilight zone, you dressed all wrong if you want to demonstrates Elvis moves... did you ever see Elvis dressed in short and sloppy t-shirts? Wear jeans and white T-shirt and show your moves if you can....
Elvis didn't need to even try ... he just DID it without thought -- it came from somewhere way down deep and just came out naturally and effortlessly.
Agreed! That’s why he’s The King.
Every move he made and every word he sang came straight from the heart. I’d kill to see him in concert, but he was WAY before my time.
It came from a little boy named forrest gump duh!

Didn't realize how much Elvis could bust a move naturally
All Elvis does is bust moves!
HE WAS CURSED!!
Its to hard to dance like elvis, i don't know what his leg made of
his leg is made of forrest gump skill
Greatness
Interesting!
Rubber
Don’t fight in my comments.
Elvis and his devilish pelvis 😂😂
Thats funny
He wasn't even moving that he was moving his knees

It’s crazy how much natural energy Elvis had
God bless you seriously. But to see hard one has to work to copy something someone did so naturally is entertaining
It was difficult, but we tried. Thanks for watching!
Elvis always looked loose and flowing when he was doing his moves. Being relaxed is the key I think.
Elvis wiggles hips
Everyone: 🤤🤤🤤
Idk why people are roasting you. I'm in a professional show at a city theatre singing burning love and all shook up and I appreciate this work! Thank you.
Doesn’t bother me. I love the haters!
I CAN SEE HOW HARD IT IS FOR the guy to learn. Even the instructor has difficulties sometimes. Only Elvis can do ELvis' things
Aint that the truth.
Just by watching Elvis move and perform its so hard to emulate 😁
Elvis was way ahead of his time, even for today, he would be way ahead of his time. That is why he is THE PRINCE OF ANOTHER PLANET
Hi my son is a elvis fan and he has been moving like him for years before TH-cam was made also he taught him self by watching elvis from 50s on tv his favorite film is jail House rock
1:31 sounds like he’s describing ultra instinct
Ultra Instinct?! Never heard that term before. Great band name. Thanks for watching🤙🤙🤙
@@kurtjenkins ha its from dragon ball super, goku gets a new power to make him faster and stronger
Bro you nailed it. Im doing a theater show that has an elvis impersonation and this has helped more than any other video. Hats off to you dude, you really got the character down
When do you start to dance like elvis?
I began learning in 2013. It’s been difficult, but fun. Thanks for watching!
SKYWAY SPIRIT When in the video?
Lol, I fast forwarded until they were dancing. I never hit play cause they never started
Kinda around the 6 minute mark. TBH, I never expected this video to get so many views. I just wanted to document the coaching session I had with a new cast member, which means the video itself is rather anti-climatic. Still, thanks for watching.
PLUS, the video is titled “move,” not “dance” haha. We were focusing on how to get the essence of his body language.
The other dude is confused
He was brand new at the time. Now he’s got the chops and is working consistently! 🤙
I can't tell you how much I laughed when I clicked this friday
Woah! Haha. That’s amazing! Hoped the video helped. Looks like you really stepped up. I’m sure you gained mucho points in the MDQ world. 🤙
This breakdown is appreciated the way Elvis dances is underrated and you captured it good
It's not something you can learn or copy. Elvis had a gift no one else has had.
Where do you even start to look for someone to teach this one on one?
You did great!
I can’t wait to dance like Elvis Presley
Every muscle movement in his body was in perfect natural motion to the music. Until you learn to let yourself go and FLOW with the music you'll never get it!
That's why Elvis was so special. He wasn't thinking about what he was doing.
Great video! Great teachings and suggestions. Will keep in mind!
Thanks for watching!
@@kurtjenkins you suck lol
Elvis was a natural!! You can't teach that!! I'm pretty sure he never took any lessons. The man was just blessed with natural talent!!
But he did look at black people's dances and invented his own
My school is doing Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat in the spring and I hope to play the Pharaoh (who is an Elvis type character). Thank you so much for making this video, it really helped!
Haha, I love that show! I really hope you land the part; LMK. Break a leg!
Nick Skonberg I got casted for pharaoh and I’m freaking out lol. Good luck to you!👍👍
KingstonMRSE Holy Moly! Congrats and break a leg!
I’m Pharaoh in a local production & I have no clue how to move like Elvis still. I don’t jive (plus Pharaoh’s Song is a deal slower than most of the songs you think of when you think of Elvis)
The "Adjuster" on a mic stand is called the "Clutch"
didn't know that. Thanks 🫡
Thank you! I have to do blue suede shoe in a month this really helped.
Hope you had a great performance!
i love this - Elvis would have loved this too
That's once in a blue moon types as far as Elvis. The need for Elvis is overwhelming..now and then.
A once a century mix of talent, work ethic, and timing.
Thanks for this video, Really wish there were more videos like yours on how to do the fundamentals of a certain dance style. Helped me out since I'm trying how to properly do Elvis's rubber legs.
Elvis Presley no again iganei o bobo na casca do ovo
I'm Erin Presley , i'm gonna do an ELvis cosplay for halloween this year i can do elvis some what
It seems hard but kinda fun
This is funny, but is hard to do the same as Elvis, we have all tried, if is not natural is not you! Just listen to Music and that opens your other senses. Be your self!
I can actually dance very much like Elvis and I'm proud of it. I can't sing though 😂
I feel like i sing like elvis but it could be just me
thanks for sharing
Thanks for watching!
learned nothing but i laughed a lot
So act like a drunk blowing up the mic
On LSD
Nice one.
Thanks!
Nobody:
Grown ups in the 30s: this is not good for the children to see
30s? Elvis was born in 1935 and he was dancing like this in the 50s
Plot twist: you just need music…
We got some eventually.
not a bounce so much as a vibration. check out andy kaufman impersonations too.
I wonder if one can actually make a living out of this; because it sure seems like work yo me. 😂
Elvis, of course, well done, but we all know who actually came up with these movements. (I'm talking about Forrest)
My mom thinks she is the reincarnation of Elvis cause he overdosed a month away from my mom’s birth
Lol. There are thousands of who were born after Elvis death of 1 month
Coo
lol....you're buddy looks so stiff and constipated when he's trying.
Give him a break. It was his first time playing the role.
You guys definitely don't move like Elvis.... sorry about it
No one moves like Elvis, but we try.
They actually dance better than Elvis at this moment
Technically true!
@@warrenseiboth3466 you can't dance better than Elvis
@@phoeberowlinson6206 ha ha elvis is sucking up daisys im alive so I can dance better because im alive lol
You guys are ok but teacher you forgot to tell student the key to moving like ELVIS. If I get 15 thumbs up you wiil get the key.
Haha. How about this? 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍!
@@kurtjenkins curl the lip then everything falls in place. That should have been the first lesson. Music might help too.
Of course! He was brand new to the show, so we needed to deal only in fundamentals of his body movement. We worked with music during actual rehearsals 🤙
gotta have loose fitting trousers and keep you legs stiffer like you are coming..
Nice 👍🏽 should be an
Ha..ha..ha
This is ridiculous. You don't even do his best move- when he sqats down with one leg out. Check out the suspicious minds live video.
This is video is specifically addressing the movement of Elvis early in his career (‘50s). I’d love for you to post a video of your own and show me how I can improve.
I'm sure your buddy has already told you how you can "improve" several times in the bedroom. This is still ridiculous.
I’m always looking to improve. Thanks for the constructive criticism 🤙
Nice dance moves!
Haha. Thanks!
🙄
You ain't remotely moving like Elvis
Safe to say a woman has never entered that appartment..🤔
Copy cat!
First step to move like Elvis is to not look like some first grader. You failed so far.
haha
How to movie like elvis does not make sense 👎😒😒😒
Sorry to hear that. What would’ve made the information clearer?
Sure crap is this
Hey dude ,you two guys are in the twilight zone, you dressed all wrong if you want to demonstrates Elvis moves... did you ever see Elvis dressed in short and sloppy t-shirts? Wear jeans and white T-shirt and show your moves if you can....
