Mama! this is whats wrong with you MUSIC is ABOUT rythym . . you have a bit . . RYTHYM is a SOUL thing . . let go of what you think anyoone is thinking abou you and let the musiic dictate yor actions, rythym is spiritual, when you are teaching these simple moves as a shool lesson takes away from the freedom of DANCE . dance IS freedom! European dance styles are NOT naturally rythmic despite much of our bodys sytems exist on a rythym, heart and respitory, deven sleep patterns are naturally on a rythym, that telss meyour minds are preocupied with an unatural source of overly preocupation with self, that cnnot let free what our bosies do naturally, . . there was an american song i heard as a kid that said LET THE MUSIC TAKE CONTROL the beat goes round and round and up and down . . dont be so controlled, LET THE MUSIC AND THE BEAT DIRECT YOU! . Dance is SPIRITUAL, inate and its own language, let DANCE teach you its language! If more people danced the world would be amuch better place. Dance is LOVE!!!

52 here and the same. Not sure how I feel about the title of this video that makes it seem like a 40 y/o or 50 year old dont know how to move anymore just because we are no longer 20. I personally feel its a little judgemental. Everyone I know my age still knows how to dance. I mean, its not like we're sitting in rocking chairs at 40 and 50 or that somehow after your 39th birthday you suddenly are an embarassment? What the actual f***?

GOOD FOR YOU!

I'm 58 and just started dancing a few months ago. I've never liked being the center of attention, so I've always just sat out or if I did participate I'd just weave and bob. This all changed several months ago when my husband, who's a dancing machine and I, along with a group of friends and family went to a local music concert. I don't know what was different about that evening, but I took a deep breath, put my arms in the air and let my body feel the music. My husband was flabbergasted, our family and friends were so happily surprised and I felt amazingly free! It was a big life moment, which I never anticipated, but for which I'm so grateful. I am now side by side with my husband and friends enjoying each beat to its fullest. We're never too old to grow, dance and throw caution to the wind! 😉

I went on the floor and was enjoying myself but was soon encircled by a group of girls that always bullied me. They were mimicking my dancing and looking ridiculous. I was humiliated and to this day have never enjoyed dancing again. I am now 65. Thank you for giving me confidence to possibly try again❤️

Yes, I’m watching and I’m 54 years old. And I love dancing 😊

I turned 63 today 4-20 and I am watching this because your never too old to learn

Had this just pop up on my feed…. 80’s teen girl here so yes I’m 54 and I loved dancing when I was younger. Took a bit too. I appreciate this help! 😊

I’m now a senior but danced all the time in my youth and middle age (slow dancing, jive, swing, etc). As time went by, sadly, the opportunities to dance became less. However, grandchildren are getting married and I want to be “cool” and learn these new steps. I came upon this channel quite by accident but have to say a big “thank you”. You are a splendid teacher and make it look easy! 👍

I have loved club dancing since I was 15 and always danced my heart out and for hours and hours at a time. So. Much! FUN! Now, I can't believe that I could actually be 51, and nothing about that has changed. My hubby and kids remark that I can't help but dance when I hear good music! This is good advice for beginners!

When I’m upbeat ( how apt), when the music starts to play I just have to move to it. If we are in a public place and a song that I like comes on I find bits of dancing leaks out of me. I just can’t help it. I was often the only one on the dance floor.

I was a professional dancer for years and this woman is spot in with her subdued, simple moves that are really what modern dancing is about. Sticking to her basics and elaborating on them when you feel more confident is The best way I know to look cool and sexy without being ostentatious and looking show offy. Always look relaxed and casual.

I’m 63, do Yoga regularly but have bad knees. These moves are great! 💃. Esp since some weddings are coming up with dancing. Thx ☺️

I’m 68, and watching. Love to dance!😊😊

Hi there, I should have seen this video 30 years ago! I am not going to any social events where we dance anymore. I still enjoyed it and it was interesting and I have learnt the 4 moves and I am grateful to you, it was really effortless. It de-mistified dance which always frightened me.

Oh I love to dance. I literally will go in my room turn on the music and have my own dance party. My husband I used to go all the time dancing but he is pancreatic cancer so we’re putting it on hold for a while dancing makes everything feel good. Thank you for your tutorials. Awesome

All people are here is kind and caring, that’s lovely, sweet and supportive ❤
