How to JAZZ SPLIT (and Slide Back Up SMOOTH!) | Dance Dynamics Tutorial

[@Ty-xb7dj]

I love that Jam was playing in the background

[@reynishida6324]

JoeyTheJam is the best teacher, I watched lots of other videos, but it's hard to understand or do the moves.

[@Floorguy1000]

I have seen many, many jazz split videos. Some are good...but this one is the BEST. Highly recommended for anyone trying to learn a jazz split.

[@TapDanceExchange]

Tap Dancers were the pioneers of this move!!!!

[@dancewithkimberley]

This is great. I thought this move would be super hard but after watching your video and copying the steps I feel like I can already do it (well.. almost... now I'm going to dedicate myself to watch this video a couple times this week to master it)

[@random-mk8ux]

My favorite dance from prince.

[@DANIELSPEER1978]

Thank you! Believe it or not I plan on using this in a country dance I do to a song by Jake Owens. By the way... I am 42 and about to learn this and use it!

[@mariamjimsheleishvili3080]

Only Chanel that explains getting up properly :D You my friend earned a subscription.

[@chiantiprice92]

I've always wanted to do this move but never thought I had the flexibility. Thanks bro

[@jitendradude]

I once did this accidentally... I and my dance mates were shocked af.. 😂

[@hetttttyytgabn18]

thank you!! now I can dance yeonjun - ggum

[@PoP2012TII]

My oh my! Finally found this video again! First time I saw this was probably in 2021. Just want to thank you for this lesson! Your guidance helped me figure out how to Jazz Split (by stopping half way down and then ease my body all the way down to the floor). Nobody had ever mentioned that part to me before, so thank you!

[@chiranjeeviv4952]

To be honest ...am perfecting my locking for battles with ur tutorial...thank u so much buddy..lots of love and respect ✨

[@JoeyTheJAM]

Glad to hear it CJ! Thanks for watching 😊

[@erickramas5809]

Awesome explanation dude. Would you please provide a tutorial for the sequence you did at the end?

[@malinovabrambora]

I'm gonna do this at my prom. Who's the nerd now, huh?! Thanks man :D

[@MegaDobrich]

Thanks so much. Probably the only channel that explains the most difficult locking moves on internet :D

[@robellt7204]

Thanks Joey, your video is real helpful! This is one of the first dance moves I'm actually having to practice more than a day to master, and it's great that you have progressions here like there are in calisthenics moves. One thing tho, and this is for @Sao vang and @Daniel Porter as well: if you're having trouble getting up onto your knee like I was when I started learning this move a week ago, I recommend starting with the "getting up onto your knee" step but with having your hands on the ground and pushing off of them to get you up. This will help you strengthen your legs since you can do more of, or maybe even the full range of motion with your hands on the ground right off the bat. Over time, only use your 10 fingertips instead of your hands, then 8, then 6 et cetera until you get to where i am now and you can get up onto one knee using momentum like Joey does in the video Edit: don't worry if it takes you more than a week to do, and it could also take less time if you're more experienced/stronger than me😂

[@infamously5278]

Super helpful brother, thank you for the video

I need to stretch for this 😬

[@Theparadoxband]

I’ve been at it for 2 months consistently. I’m almost all the way down

[@jpalmer6770]

Hey Joey, do you know the song at 9:57?

[@JoeyTheJAM]

It’s called Go Go by Dance Style Lockers

[@jpalmer6770]

@@JoeyTheJAM oh, thanks man! Love your videos as well. They make me want to get into locking. Earned yourself another sub! Peace.

[@swezin8450]

[@akhileshrawat2245]

Thanku sir

[@whiteknightofkaos]

Thanks for sharing this. How much do you weigh? Cause I know being a certain weight size does help.

[@blkphenom]

Fred Berry was a big guy and an amazing locker. He did this move all the time.

[@bradyrodeheaver]

People who can’t even lift themselves up 😭

[@rxripen4912]

Love u nyc step

[@Ohpolo2]

How can I get flexible enough For that?

[@JoeyTheJAM]

Stretch! Haha

[@logger1176]

here after yeonjuns ggum

[@Uchiaclan109]

Its so easy lol😁

[@uarmymoonchild]

& sí, he venido por GGUM de Yeonjun 🤭

[@alexandriaxiong6344]

Why is it so hard to get back up😭

[@evh5464]

Just go slow

[@dlp3rdlegend]

how do you sit up during a split cuse i can't do it i lean back on with my hand holding me up

[@JoeyTheJAM]

You have to use momentum to pull your just up as well as have good leg strength to push 👍🏼

[@dlp3rdlegend]

@@JoeyTheJAM so do i need to lean in more on my left or right leg thats stretch out or this is not me being flexible enough problem

[@dlp3rdlegend]

@@JoeyTheJAM cause the more i try and strecth out the more i lean back having to use my hand to hold me up

[@saurabhchaudhary06]

Hi.... Bro To do this Move Full Stretching (Split) Is Necessary Or Not , Please tell me bro I'm so Confused

[@JoeyTheJAM]

No technically this is a half split, not a full split, so the idea is not to be in a full stretch. But being flexible does help as with everything!

[@saurabhchaudhary06]

@@JoeyTheJAM thanks bro for reply Love ❤ from India 🇮🇳

[@Shaddad_Gomid]

@@JoeyTheJAM I figured out that i'm not that flexible with half split. I mean, I can do half split, but I don't feel at ease at all. I'm planning on teaching my body being in the half split position for 2 weeks before I can do the drill at 3:27 After two weeks I think i'm gonna start with the drill. Is that okay ? By the way, thank you for the tutorial brother !!

[@ulthanji]

IWNNA DO GGUM

[@Zzbzbbzbz]

Not me being unable to do this because im not flexible enough 😭

[@gabriela8252]

I have no flexibility😫

[@JoeyTheJAM]
