Hip Hop Dance Moves: Jump Outs

Video Transcript

"Hi, I'm Keith Fitzpatrick and this is easy to learn hip hop and I'm going to show you how to do a jump out. Now a jump out is something that is usually done at the end of another move, so it's kind of like a transition move, or an ending statement. So what you want to do is your leg will come out, depending on which side you're jumping out to, if you're going to jump out with your right foot, you'll flick your foot forward, it comes up, and then you're out, it's kind of like a stop; so again, you'll come here, back, and jump out, but it's really quick so you're going to come out. And instead of most people doing it incorrectly they'll always go this way, and it's not the same thing; you'll want to let that come up, both your feet will jump up, and out, that's why I call it the jump out. So with the same foot, left foot, you'll jump forward, up, and out. Okay, so let's just say we were putting that at the end of something, say the slide, like we did the last piece, if we we're sliding to the left or the right, and at the end of that we add a jump out, it will look like, slide, alright; or the other way, we're sliding, boom, and out; it's always something you kind of do at the end of a piece. So make sure that your foot comes up, both legs go up, and out; same thing with this foot, you want to stick with up, and out. Again, at the end of another combination, you're here, and out; or if you want to do it on a spin, like we did the spin the last time, you can spin, and out; other way, spin, and out; or slide, and out, either way, okay; that's your jump out."
