Great!!
I decided to learn Bhangra, but there were absolutely no classes anywhere near me. This was a really great alternative. The instructor explains the steps clearly, and there are lots of steps included so that you could be using the app for months and months before you got through them all. That's if you're an absolute beginner like me. I think users of different levels can easily tailor their use of this app to suit their ability. This app is exactly what I wanted, and if I do not learn Bhangra the fault will be all mine!
Easy-to-use, easy to dance!
I've danced Bhangra for more than 5 years and had to teach countless dancers how to dance Bhangra from scratch. This video-based learning app is by far the best method of teaching. It's a user-friendly design and the videos are methodical and easy to follow. The instructors are clear and communicate well. Every step is broken down to basics and there is enough repetition of each part to allow dancers to practice and build on what they just learned before moving on to a different component.
Saved me from being an embarrassing dancer
Had to learn bhangra before an upcoming wedding performance with my family and the app saved me! The tutorial videos are great and I was able to stream them directly to my Apple TV! 🙌🏾

In recent years, twerk is gaining more and more popularity among the youth.
Dynamic movements of one of the most piquant parts of the female body, helps dancers to liberate themselves and pump sexuality. In addition, this is a powerful fitness workout, where the main focus is on the work of the gluteal muscles and thighs. As a result of such shock physical activity, the body is tightened and acquires the desired rounded shape.
In pursuit of beautiful buttocks and slender legs, modern girls do not need to resort to plastic surgery and go to a surgeon. You can achieve the desired result with the help of twerk classes. Consider whether it is so easy for beginners to master this direction, and what are the benefits of fashionable dance for the body.
What is twerking
Twerking is a new dance direction, which is based on the movement of the buttocks and hips. Sometimes it is called booty dance (bootydance) or booty shake (bootyshake).
The history of twerk is closely intertwined with ancient African tribal customs. The girls performed a dance with characteristic sexual movements to attract the attention of the opposite sex. It was a kind of signal, a suggestion of intimacy. If a man was ready to have a relationship with a girl he liked, then in response he took part in the dance and demonstrated similar movements.
At the beginning of the 21st century, America remembered this forgotten African tradition and decided to take it as the basis of the dance. The new direction was called twerk. It took a decade for local choreographers to stage and perfect the technique. And only then the twerk was demonstrated to the world.
The public was not ready for a long time to accept the new direction, which was perceived as sexually provocative and hurt the feelings of adherents of the classics. However, if you delve a little into history, it becomes clear that the appearance and origin of most dance styles was initially criticized. For example, it was unacceptable for a decent lady to perform tango. But gradually, such heated debates around twerk faded away, and now girls who professionally master this type of dance are only admired.
Twerking continues to conquer the world. If earlier women used to attract male tribesmen with dances, now they resort to buti neck to form and maintain a beautiful figure. Guys are also increasingly paying attention to booty dance.
Dance cannot exist apart from music. And for a long time, twerk was in dire need of instrumental accompaniment. Performing completely new movements to well-known tunes was not interesting. There is an opinion that for commercial success, a musical style must combine both an element of novelty and reminiscent of what was before. Otherwise, the public will not understand and will not accept the revolutionary idea. Music for booty dance consists of various types of rap, typical of some southern states.
Benefits of classes
Gradually, a new fashionable dance moved from TV screens to the halls of sports centers and added to the list of popular types of training. So, residents of Moscow can master the twerk technique step by step in the La Salute fitness club. Training is conducted by experienced instructors.
Classes are a powerful cardio load, which helps to strengthen the cardiovascular system of the body, improve blood circulation. Special exercises help to remove extra centimeters in the waist and hips, tighten the figure and improve the appearance of the buttocks, giving them elasticity and roundness.
The benefits of twerking don't end there. This kind of physical activity has a beneficial effect on the female body, not only from the outside. The movements during the dance are a kind of massage for the internal organs. It helps to reduce or completely eliminate menstrual pain, reduce excess bile, get rid of cellulite.
Dancing twerk is also a powerful psychological resource. During the lesson, a woman develops the skill of owning her own body and thus can be liberated, reveal and strengthen her sexuality, and increase self-esteem.
Contraindications
Twerk classes do not require any special physical preparation or complexion. In terms of health, there are restrictions only for those who have problems with the spine and the musculoskeletal system.
During the dance there is a serious load on the knees. These points should be taken into account by everyone who wants to learn booty neck. At the slightest pain, you must immediately stop the lesson and immediately consult a doctor. You also need to be wary if after class it hurts to sit or lie on your side.
How to learn to twerk
Twerk is a very dynamic dance, and the muscles are under a lot of stress, so the body needs a mandatory warm-up before training. You can practice tilting the torso to the sides, forward and backward. Exercises should be done slowly, while feeling how the muscles are stretched and warmed up. It is useful to sit on the longitudinal and transverse twine, if the stretch allows.
Since the main focus in twerking is on the buttocks, hips, lower back, the main base of exercises consists of the following elements:
- vibration of the gluteal muscles;
- rotations of the hips and lower back;
- work alternately with different buttocks;
- repetition of the figure eight with the hips;
- hip thrusts.
Beginners can try to learn the basic movements at home, this will help various video tutorials, which show the elements of twerk for beginners in stages.
After stretching, you can move on to learning the basic movements that help you master the technique from scratch:
- Stand with your feet shoulder-width apart, straighten your back, squat. In this position, it is necessary to rotate the hip joint, making a figure eight.
- Place your palms on the floor and quickly bend and unbend your knees, vibrating your pelvis.
- Squat down with your hands on your belt. Try to actively shake your lower torso so that your legs and hips vibrate as you do so. This is an important exercise, one of the main elements of the dance.
- Continue with hip crunches with knees bent. To do this, return to the starting position, turn the toe of the right leg inward along with the knee, while shaking the buttocks with the force of the thigh. Do the same with the left leg. It turns out a twist movement.
Thus, you can learn to twerk by starting with the basic elements, which successively turn into bundles, and you get a complete dance.
Comfortable tracksuit, shorts or leggings are suitable for training. Shoes - sneakers or sneakers.
At first glance, it may seem that there is nothing complicated in the described movements. But it's not. There are few basic exercises, but not everyone can master them correctly. Therefore, armed with a little home preparation, you can safely proceed to classes under the guidance of an experienced trainer at the LaSalute dance studio.
What kind of music to dance to
The bootyshake dance requires the right accompaniment. Since the movements of this direction are quite dynamic, the incendiary samba, rap, hip-hop, R&B will be an ideal option. There are several popular songs that go well with dance - these are "BubbleButt" and "Bandz A Make Her Dance".
Why twerking doesn't work
There are reasons why movements may not come out correctly:
- Lack of flexibility in the lumbar spine and hips. In this case, additional stretching exercises will help.
- Deflection problem. If during training you take the body back due to the shoulders and thoracic spine, and not the lower back, then nothing will work.
- Tightness of the body, tension. Immediately liberated and immersed in the atmosphere of twerk may not come out of the first lesson. From this movement look "wooden". In this case, you just need to give yourself time and gradually join the general rhythm of mood.
Booty Shake is gradually winning the hearts of people around the world. According to the reviews of people who have mastered twerk, the dance has a lot of advantages - a great mood, the necessary cardio load, health benefits and the acquisition of the desired forms. It liberates, relieves tightness and complexes, increases sexuality. You can join the incendiary rhythms in the La Salute dance studio.
