How To Do The Beat It Dance

In this video, I'm going to show you how to do the Beat It dance. Now, this is a Michael Jackson signature dance from Beat It, which is on the featured album and today, I'm going to show you how to do the chorus. So, make sure you've got enough space to walk forward and we're going to start with four steps.

Now, these four steps, you're going to start on your right, you need to be moving up and down. So, it's going to be one, then bent, so you're going to be up and down, two, three, four. So, that's step one with a click on the right so at the same time, as you did on that sort of side, your right hand's clicking or pretend to click if you can't.

So, you're going to be going, two clicks to every step. So, this is step one, four of these, and then you're going to bring both feet together, both punch on your right so you're leaning away from it and your left. Step out of your right foot, right punch, then your left.

So, that's step two. Step three, you do a bull chain which means change feet, so you swap your feet and you grab in and you put your arms into your hips. Bring your hips slightly forwards and look into the front and then, you take in two steps back, bull change, so left, right and your hands go out and you repeat again, lean, two steps back.

So, we repeat the steps, one, two, three. Step one is clicks, two, three, four. Step two is your punches, one, two, three, four.

Bull change for step three, two, pull back, you look into the front, bull change, look to the front. Okay. Step four, you do another bull change which is change feet.

Left, right and at the same time, clicking hands out about hip high. So, from here is step four and you turn halfway to the back, you do the same thing again, and then, keep turning past the front. So, that's step four.

Step five, after you turn, you stomp with the right foot, looking at the back and then looking at the front. So, the last few steps - step four, you've got a cross, turn and that is left, right, turn, keep overturning, step and look at the back, look to the front, bend your right knee. Step six, two heels.

Step seven, arms are cycling over twice so your palms are as you're coming in and over, and you're pushing your bottom out on each one as your arms come down. Take your right hand out, click four times, this is the last step, lean on your left leg and keep looking at the front. And that's step eight and you repeat again from step one.

And that's how you do the Beat It dance. .
