Instructions

1. Buy Ciara's albums "Goodies" and "The Evolution." Purchase the versions that include bonus material and videos. On the "Goodies" album, you will find a few of her videos, but on "The Evolution" album you will find an actual dance tutorial by Ciara herself.

2. Wear the proper attire when practicing Ciara's dance routines. Comfortable, loose-fitting clothing is best. Sweat pants and a T-shirt are suitable, too. Ciara's movements require flexibility. Ciara dances in heels a lot, but you may need to start out in tennis shoes.

3. Master Ciara's famous "Matrix" dance move. This move requires the entire body. Place your feet apart in alignment with your shoulders. Stand on the inner part of your shoe so that your ankle is facing the ground. Bend your knees slowly. Lower your back at the same time you bend your knees. Get as low to the ground as possible without touching it. This is Ciara's signature move.

4. Learn Ciara's "Goodies" dance routine. This is one of Ciara's most popular dances. There is more focus on Ciara's upper body movement in this routine. Note how she constantly uses her arms before moving the rest of her body.

5. Work on your hand gestures and facial expressions. Ciara is renowned for implementing her "mean mug" expressions in her dance. She extends her hand out in a peculiar way once she has finished a dance step. Study these components to make your moves just as good as Ciara's moves.
