7 TikTok Dance Moves You Can Learn At Home
TikTok is filled with short, fun dance routines that you can watch for endless hours (trust me, I've done it), share with friends, and learn at home with STEEZY.
But, let's face it.
If you don't have a dance background, the short, hard to follow tutorials on TikTok can be a frustrating roadblock to joining in on the fun.
Here are simple, easy ways you can learn the 7 most popular moves on TikTok.
1. The CitiRokk
The CitiRokk is that one SUPER POPULAR TikTok dance move where you rock your body from side to side and cross your arms in front of your chest.
Watch this video with the move’s creator, CitiBoyRio, to see how the move took over TikTok!
*BONUS*
While the CitiRokk was popularized on TikTok by the Renegade dance routine, CitiBoyRio just dropped a new routine of his own!
Learn the CitiRokk Shuffle routine just in time before it goes viral. 😎

2. The Woah
Just WATCHING people hit the Woah gets me excited.
It's simple, hype, and easy to apply to any song with a dope bass beat.
If you've been lurking on TikTok for any time at all, you've probably already seen it yourself and understand how it's supposed to look.
How you create the reverb motion, where to position your arms, and when to move your body to hit the beat on time is all you need to learn. 👇
3. The Swagg Bouncee
Do your hips naturally sway from side to side when a good song comes on?
Think of the Swagg Bouncee as your natural hip-sway's cooler, trendier sibling.
Lil Rich Swagg, who created the Swagg Bouncee, says to “Stay on your tippy toes to get a full range of motion,” in his STEEZY Studio class.
By committing to the move and making it bigger, you'll look more confident!
4. The Kangsta Wok
In the video below, this TikTok dance move's creator, Zaya Sosho, explains how he based the Kangsta Wok on a "dip" move he saw during a cypher.
When you do the Kangsta Wok, make sure not to over- or under-exert your energy.
Attack each level drop with a little intensity to make the move look extra hype, but don't go so hard that your body tenses up!
You want to make it look effortlessly cool. 😎
Still not totally sure how to make that happen?
Don't worry... Zaya Sosho will teach you in the tutorial below!
Use this guide to help to you practice too!
5. The Smeeze
This move first entered the dance scene in 2009, but at the time, it was mainly used during battles and parties.
When TikTok arrived in 2018, the move's creator, Chonkie, knew this was the perfect platform to bring the Smeeze to the next level.
With hashtags like #SMEEZEEVERYWHERE, and dance crews like the Jabbawockeez picking it up, the Smeeze quickly became a TikTok favorite.
You can learn more about it from Chonkie himself in this video!
While millions of people are, in fact, Smeezin' everywhere, the move can be a little tricky due to the alternating movements of the arms and legs.
Use this step-by-step tutorial to get the timing jussssst right!
6. The Bust Down
As far as TikTok dance moves go, the Bust Down is definitely on the sexier end of the spectrum.
Characterized by a scoop/thrust motion of the hips, the move is great for raunchy club jams like "Thotiana" by Blueface – the song that popularized the move!
If adding a lil sexy swagger to your movement feels like climbing Mt. Everest, know that practice and repetition will be your best friend!
STEEZY's tutorial breaks the move down simply and efficiently, so you can learn it in just 9 minutes and repeat sections LITERALLY AS MANY TIMES AS YOU WANT.
Trust us, you'll have swag down to a science.👨🔬
7. The Cosby Walk
Yes, when executed the right way, the simple act of marching can become a dope dance move!
Watch our video with Rated R, creator of the Cosby Walk, to see exactly what we mean:
As you're learning this move, make sure you're placing your feet firmly on the floor and evenly distributing your weight!
If your bottom half is weak and wobbly, you'll look more bambi than bad@$$.

What is dance?
Shuffle (shuffle, shuffle) is recognized as a real hit of 2017. This is not a battle dance, but a way to express the worldview to others using your body language. This direction is characterized by movements that imitate the trampling of a dancer in one place with smooth steps, and the dance itself is divided into two varieties:0008
- Australian classic;
- Malaysian.
The dance as such appeared towards the end of the 80s in the underground venues of the Australian city of Melbourne. He accidentally hit the masses and subsequently began to actively progress, capturing the popular nightlife in Melbourne, and a little later, club hangouts around the world.
In the early 1990s, shuffle separated from the original musical style of acid house and became a separate dance direction, changing the musical background from tehno to trance and house along with it. At the same time, the speed of movements performed by the dancer also changes upwards. And ten years later, the popularity of the dance reaches unprecedented heights thanks to various videos on the Internet and numerous mentions in the media. nine0008
Today this dance direction is promoted by many popular DJs and famous party-goers from the club industry of foreign countries, in our country this dance direction is just beginning to develop.
How to dance the shuffle: basic exercises, video
Before starting to learn the basic movements of the dance style, the dancer needs to properly stretch the muscles of the legs and arms in order to prevent them from stretching. However, this rule applies not only to shuffle. nine0008
The main movement in the dance is sliding steps from side to side and back and forth, which are an imitation of the walking of a dancing person in one place. This movement received the term Running man (running man), and subsequently it served as an impetus for the choice of the name of the dance direction - Shuffling, which means "shuffling" or "sliding feet on the floor. "
In addition to the standard combination, there are 4 more basic positions in the dance:
- Teshka is a combination of leg movements, which together represents the letter T, when the left foot alternates from left to right, while the right foot moves up and down in the same way. nine0004
- Kick - imitation of kicks in the air or on the floor. In this movement, one of them is slightly ahead, and the second hits the place of the other foot. At the same time, the height of the raised knee can vary at the request of the dancer.
- Slide - classic sliding movements.
- Spin - scrolls, which represent the rotation of the body around its axis clockwise or counterclockwise. This movement is performed randomly during the dance process, in the order you want. nine0004
Shuffle today uses a large number of dynamic movements from other popular dance styles: popping, locking, liquid dance, breaking, etc. Dancers take interesting combinations and, combining them with each other, create a unique and inimitable dance in the future.
It is more efficient to learn dance with a personal trainer. If this is not possible, the following video tutorials for beginners will help you learn how to dance shuffle at home:
A full hour of shuffle dance music is included in this mix:
If you train long and hard, you might even be able to achieve the following results:
