Your body waves weren't bad but you really need to make it look like your chest it popping out more. Thats the only thing wrong that I saw.

hey, just wanna add some suggestions.

arm waves: they were fine, but make variations! and u can always make them cleaner...always work on isolation.

body wave: when you're waving down, the part where u flip your knees outward, you're supposed to lift ur TOES in order to let the knees go out... ur body level should not change at all. it's hard to explain, but watch ur vid and ull see that when ur going down with ur wave ur entire body is dipping a little.

glides: higher arcs, longer sweeps, shoes

arm movements in general: your arms looked sorta like you were tryin to robot at the beginning but by the end it just looked bad... you gotta come up with some funky angles.

I saw an (some) unfinished wave. And the body waves were pretty repetitive.

practice i think u ned to learn how to be smoother slow it down a lil mayb and just feel it through ur body like close ur eyes and feel the beat movieng through ur arms and when it reaches ur shoulder imagine the beat exploding when u reach ur shoulder and take that explosion and express it through ur wave (as in pop ur should NOT LOCK IT but just through it up as if it were exploding and carry on with the wave) put sumthing soulfull on for music dont start out at a hard beated song start out with sumthing that makes u wanna have sex(i know its not the best example but bear with me)and like rlly break it down in ur head there is 2 ways u can break it down

1 is to just do it and think about it and know ur doing it(this is the wrong way to learn ) when u r doing this u need to be mentally focused more then phsyically ur mind has to sit there and see it happening and it needs to feel slow even though ur going fast

2 the right way(think in ur head) of going as slow as u can and see the beat moving with your arm and rlly feel only your arm moving mentally and physically and just feel the beat and once u get confortable move ur body in 2-d like movements and start to add 1 2-d movement for every wave but dont over do it!

hope that helps a lil thats how i learnd

REMEMBER EYES CLOSED AND MENTAL FOCUS IS KEY

(everyone has a diff experiance with learning and "how to dowave" this is onl how i learnd and how i wave
