Shuffle Tutorial: Tips to improve your RUNNING MAN

[@johnbauer5298]

Well my 18 year old brain is stuck in this 70 year old body but I’m determined to learn some of these steps. Really good cardio workout. I’ve got the running man down after 2 days but it is rough and clumsy. Practice, practice, practice. Thanks for this video, really helpful.

[@MrPixiepantz]

Well that beats my 18 year old brain in a 50 year old body. Mine apparently decided that I *needed* to learn the running man and how to unicycle...2020 lockdown has a lot to answer for.

[@JimManeri]

I’m 59 and I started shuffling in 2018. It’s fun to be an old guy and just bust out shuffle dancing at a festival

[@andrewmyers7131]

46 YO man apparently thinking the same as others. I will wait for the day to pull it out of the back pocket and when I throw it down it’s going to be totally awesome. I also do it as fun cardio. Rock on my dudeskies.

51 yo woman still waiting to grow up. This is so much fun!

[@johnbauer5298]

@@thomasannahail4536 Don’t do it! You won’t like growing up.

This is brilliant! I'm an overweight 50 year old truck driver that can do the running man easily now.

Loo this made my day

[@katelyn5840]

Girl this is the most helpful tutorial I’ve ever seen. Showing the common mistakes and explaining how to fix them + showing a side by side is SO helpful

[@diyanaya]

because of you i improved (and still work on) my running man, learned how to 'rock' aaaaanddd i finally got the courage to record myself shuffling AND showed it to my friends(!!!) thank you sooo so much for the positivity you spread ❤

[@EmyleeRatzlaff]

My heart is so full reading this 😭🥺

[@moodsofkiwi9285]

Same! I keep rewatching these videos. My RM is undeniably bouncy and I keep coming back for tips

[@JSuparman]

15 minutes try doing this, explained by sweet instructor, make my body sweats a lot and fresher than before.

[@waynesimon1439]

You need help on doing the most simple dance ever created?😂😂😂 You are joking right?

[@diyanaya]

@@waynesimon1439 dude, yeah. the details is what i was missing, what she helped with. it was about the speed of the running man, not the move itself. nothing's wrong with needing help on the simple stuff.

[@marshallwise1763]

I am a 66 year old man. I've been quite athletic over those years, but I have to say, learning the running man has been the most challenging. This video really helps.

[@micro_vengeance]

I can't tell you how many tutorials I've seen, how many times I've seen videos of people saying "the running man is so easy to master" while I'm in my room making my attempt at the running man and feeling like a wobbly, stomping troll. This is THE tutorial which I think will finally bring me to my breakthrough. I am not a dancer but years ago when I first saw your shuffling videos, I knew I wanted to look like that and be able to dance like you do. If I can do this, my confidence will be so much higher 🥰 thank you Emylee!

[@MJPK17]

By far in a way the best tutorial I’ve watched on running man. You will have noticed Emylee that it ain’t all 20yr old folks learning from you - like the 70 year old and 50 year old trucker, I’m 59 but have had your tutorial on for 2 hours rewinding constantly and (1) you’ve really improved my running man so thanks and (2) what a workout!!!! Brilliant work - many thanks

[@greggalf6140]

Excellent analysis, I could not even imagine, a simple movement has so many nuances.

[@edrgymnast]

I have been watching a slow motion video of me shuffling for weeks now and haven't figured out that I've been kicking down instead of stepping down until now...THANK YOU SO MUCH what would I do without you honestly

[@Bishoujo8]

You cleared up 2 mistakes that I have been struggling with. Bending knee stance and keeping the back foot flat and not lifting heel. Gold tips. Thank you!

[@moodsofkiwi9285]

I’m struggling with these too! I’ve watched her video a couple of times but I’m still not sure how to fix it. I can keep the back foot flatter if my stance is narrower. But the bending the knee is tricky.

[@theycallmelerch]

You are seriously the best teacher thank you so much 🙏

[@fabiomirnig5694]

bitte

[@johnwilkinson3478]

Thanks for the instruction. I’m a 75 year old overweight man and I’m really getting used to the running man thanks to you … much better than my exercise classes with the old foggies in the UK.😊.

[@JohnSmith-sl6hg]

Yeah shame it didn't help your spelling....keep shuffling 😅

[@lindajacobs5801]

75 yo shy TX grandma and closet dancer. You have broken down the steps so it is understandable. Just hope I don't break a hip practicing the steps. Goal is to get in shape and shock my husband.

[@leilaniverango7517]

#4 is sooo me! No wonder I look a bit "off" when I'm doing it and not as cool-smooth looking as how you and the other dancers do it. The way you are extremely detailed -- rather than just a show and tell (which may work for some people) -- is very helpful to someone like me who needs both detailed verbal AND visual instructions. Thank you sooo much for this tutorial

[@louismacareo371]

I so agree. Detail is key. Her videos are awesome.

[@sania5113]

Your shuffling techniques have almosssttt made me a pro at it! I’m following you since an year ig, and learning! You’re the best teacher out there x

[@karransaini]

you are amazing, I’m so glad I finally have someone on KZbin that comes out with high quality shuffle tutorials

[@ElectraPotato]

Been shuffling for over a decade and I can say this is probably one of the best videos I've seen for basics. There are so many dancers now that are making money off of tips and tutorials that are BS, but this actually breaks it down in detail. Good shit! Edit - not sure if it's intentional, but the kick forward is a part of toprock and makes a good transition when doing footwork

[@TheBooban]

Basics?! This was super advanced. I thought i had the basics but now know why my running man is kinda crappy.

[@nasreenjoseph6477]

The lifeguard chair is back 😊 so cool, and also the coolest, most practical shuffle teacher, with theee most useful info.

[@johncollins4046]

This is by far the best instructional video I have found on the running man, and trust me I've watched a lot of tutorials haha Thank you so much for breaking it down to the level that you did!! Kudos!

[@tommosier5811]

You are definitely one of the best at teaching this shuffling if not the best! Keep doing what you do because you got another 50 year old trying to master it. Saving lives. Thank you!

[@Red-by8gt]

Emylee, thank you for your tutorial, I've seen1or 2 of others but yours is very clear and at a sensible pace. I'm determend to do a great running man now at the age of 66.

[@celeste491]

This was the best tutorial on doing the running man that I've seen, addressing all of the issues that I come across. Thank you!!!

[@ksuzeq5150]

Over 50! DETERMINED to nail this!!! Tytyty WE DID IT! Well, you, of course!! But, ME! With your help, I DID IT!!! Your tutorial is AWESOME! It got me unstuck!😘🥰😍

OMG THANK YOU - My whole like I just wanted to do this move and now I'm nearly 50 all I wanna do is shuffle like you. Ok so I can't do the running man yet but I will learn. My husband does it and I hate the competition on the dance floor - he is so good- so please keep posting! @emylee so ridiculously cool and hot all at the same time

[@billyray9423]

Thank you for the detailed instructions. I've been wanting to try running man and shuffle but I am 62 and clumsy. I enjoy watching all your videos. You are amazing and adorable.

[@TheDonBoston]

Thank you for saving my 2020 and helping me get back into cardio! You're a great teacher for someone that just used to jump up and down and headbang.

[@datchentai3047]

Thank you. I really like how you diagnose problems, do demonstrations, and give helpful tips to correct the problems! You look really great!

[@Nettsinthewoods]

Hands down this is the best tutorial I’ve watched -and it’s been a few- showing the mistakes has been very helpful. Thank you Emylee.

[@Lillyparkernewsom]

Omg you are seriously the best!!! I've been watching tutorials for weeks and I didn't get it until this video. Like literally in 10 minutes I was doing it after hours of tutorials. Thank you so freaking much!!!!!

Love your studio, looks massive. I had a studio once, had the best times living there. Memories made!! Lol xx

Hey Emylee ✌️ Just wanted to say thank you for all the tutorials ❤

[@arifaliqazalbash564]

Hi Emylee, I have just learnt and practiced running man according to your tutorial and I found it so useful. You explain so simply . You are the best! 🍁🙏👏🥰

This is what I was looking for! The stance and weight distribution tips were super helpful, thank you so much 🤗

[@kimbuns221]

I could not figure out why the running man looks so different in each video I see and got so confused trying to follow different tutorials. Thanks to you I finally understand the running man. This is the best video on the running man I've ever seen. Thank you!

[@simplyforfun9350]

Thank you for doing this video, my 14 year old daughter is just starting this type of dancing and very much enjoyed the lesson. My 9 year old daughter says you look very pretty. Have a good day.

[@spigney4623]

This was so helpful! Especially the tip about keeping your head level and leaning into the front foot a little. My running man can look too light and bouncy, so im definitely going to try these tips!

[@Julisa_Aminzada]

This is the best breakdown I've seen! Confident I'll have this down by august for a festival! Thank you 🙏🏽

[@levitybooks3952]

Great video, there are a lot of running man tutorials online and most of us get the general gist but it's hard to get the fine differences between pros. It just feels like stamping after doing a simple tutorial!

[@Topinamburenjoyer]

You explain this all so clearly and care to talk about the correct approach, it all helps so much. It really shows that you are a mechanical engineer ^_^

Hi Emylee!! I’ve been watching you for a while!! You’re one of my favorites!! (I like to watch Dina & his daughter too!!.. She’s SomCute)!! However.. I’m 75 & I thought this would be Great for me to learn to Kinda stay in shape & lose some weight!! I have found.. I’ve Somewhat lost my “hopping abilities!” But I’m Not giving up!! I “LOVE” this Dance (or steps)!! It’s FUN!! & Looks Simple.. but right now.. it’s a Challenge for me!!😵‍💫🤯😰🥺 With Your Videos & Help.. I Am going to achieve this!!💫💫💫🙌🙌👍👍🥰🤗👣👣 Thank you for Your Instructions & Videos!! God Bless You!! 🙌🙌💓💓🙏🙏🥰🎵🎶

[@veronicar-k806]

Thank you!!!! Finally someone who actually explains everything and very well I will add! Thanks again for the video!!

[@nkley1]

I keep forgetting I’ll be 60 this year.......so this is right up my ally, as I hit the floor running......I mean shuffling. So be well all, as I can only imagine if we all keep up this dance, it should do everything to boost our immune systems against Covid-19, while those feel good endorphins are exploding thruout our heads. It could bring so many people together again in one worldwide Shuffle to celebrate 🎉

[@JasmineApple]

Wow! This was great! I'm just trying to learn shuffle dancing, which looks so easy & fun! Your tips make so much sense - excited to try them out!

[@kerrylui7932]

I'm watching your video on break at work right now, but I'm so excited to get home and try these tips for myself 😂😂😂

[@klaramell]

thank you, this is sooo helpful. I didn't realize that some things of my practicing the running man are "wrong" (as in it looks better when you do it different) :DD

[@jeffreybabor2585]

For someone who can't dance at all this stuff amazes me as a guitar player in a band when I see someone dancing sometimes I lose my place watching people dance it makes me happy 😊 especially because I know they are dancing to my music 🎵

[@Shufflesculpt]

You're adorable :D and so great at teaching! These were really good tips, that I haven't found anywhere else!

[@raffaellaelisapitteri6252]

You are so good at teaching I feel like I can learn. By the way I like your video made in your studio flat where everything is mixed together and so natural, spontaneous and so like how real-life is really is, at least for me. Big Hug ❤ from Milan - Italy.

[@MediaKudos]

This is the third How-To vid of yours that has really helped me advance my shuffle. Clearly explained and easy to follow. THANK YOU, E! \m/

[@alfredromero4784]

I love how fluid soft movement's not harsh or bent forward like I see a lot do or clopping like a Clidesdale every evening I practice this whew 😥 does it help me sleep 💤😴 like a baby hopefully I'll start getting into your other techniques hopefully.

[@mrpotatostick]

Thanks for the awesome tutorial! I took some notes to remember the helpful tips: • land with a bend in the knees to avoid the extra bounciness involved when the leg straightens • The bounce between beats should be as small as possible and just high enough to overcome the friction against the floor • Think about keeping your head as level as possible (like you’re balancing something on your head) • Be on the balls on your feet when you push off to prevent heaviness, but keep your feet flat especially the back foot • emphasize STEPPING DOWN instead of kicking down to create a more natural look

[@TheHumanSpirit]

Excellent video, thank you. 1 - Points made 2 - Presentation 3 - Video editing

[@jesterka62]

Thank you for the informative video. I'll be 60 soon, but I'm fascinated by dance. It's very interesting and so I'm learning it. Dancing is my passion. And it's a challenge for me. And there's nothing to do but practice and practice and learn. Thanks to Hel from the Czech Republic.

[@marty47127]

Man I've always enjoyed dancing and thought it came to me pretty easy but this is trickier than it looks!

[@unityyogamindbodyspirit7954]

U make me love shuffling!! I find sometimes when my back foot goes back, I step it back instead of sliding it back... still super new to this so I’ll keep practicing
