 You are probably here because you
are a beginner and you want to learn
how to do the cripwalk. Although many say the crip walk should be
banned because of its gang-based history, we think of it as merely a
dance move and nothing more. However for your own safety, you might
want to read
this crip walk
history article to learn about its significance. To help make it easier for you to learn
how to do the crip walk, we have gathered some videos and pictures
from the internet to make the experience a little easier for you.
Simple The How to Crip Walk Steps
1. Stand with both feet together.
2. Jump and turn towards the right a little.
3. Land with right foot in front on heel and left foot in back on
toes.
4. Jump and turn a little to the left and land how you started, both
feet together.
5. Do the same with left foot in front as you turn a little to the
left.
In English / The Explanation
First stand up straight and relax. It'll look funny if you're all
tense. Now, spread your feet about 3 inches apart. If you are right
handed, start with your right foot, if you are left handed start with
your left foot. Okay first, you make a baby step hop on that certain
foot. That foot should end up at a 45 degree angle and your toes
should be up with your heel on the ground. Then you slightly bend your
knees and put your foot down. Then you repeat that same pattern with
your other foot. It sounds very confusing, but it's not. It just takes
time and effort.
Tip:
Of course you can add some quick jumping to the left and right
rapidly, harlem, wave, whatever for style. But for the basic concept
of crip walk, the above explains it pretty well.
