Difficulty: Moderately Easy
Step1
Choose upbeat music to dance the Can-Can. Purists would have you select a song that is in 2/4 time (also known as half-time). The tune most associated with the dance is the gallop section of "Orpheus in the Underworld" by Offenbach.
Step2
Get a group of people together. While traditionally done with women, it might be fun to do with mixed sexes. Gather at least 5 people for the line.
Step3
Place your arms around the shoulders of the dancers on either side of you. Make sure you're all facing the same direction.
Step4
Kick your legs to the beat of the music. This can be a choreographed move, or you can simply take turns going "free-style" as you let each person create his or her own suggestive movements.
Step5
During selected moments in the music, turn and thrust your derriere out towards the audience while letting out a whoop! You'll have to organize this move with the other dancers.
