K-5, do this dance with your family, pets, stuffed animals, lego figures!


Cupid Shuffle music

Dance Steps:
​
1.
Count the intro that lasts for 8 beats.
2. Side Step 4 times to your right.
3.Side Step 4 times to your left.
4. You will hear the artist say, "Now, kick, now kick..." which is your cue to kick your right leg first, then the left, repeat a right
 leg kick, and one more kick with the left.
5. "Walk it by yourself" is heard in the song and you simply need to walk in place but turn yourself a 1/4 turn (or 90 degrees)
 to your left while you are walking in place. You want to end up facing another direction. If you start facing North then you
would end up facing West.
6. Repeat the above steps and that's it!
 
HELPFUL HINTS
 
Some people will shake their hips or "cha-cha" walk while turning directions.
You can relax and feel the beat by also throwing your arms out there when you are kicking your feet.
Don't go too fast. Find someone who looks like they know what they are doing and follow their lead!
