What's up? My name is Matt Steffanina and today I'm going to teach you guys how to the
Reject.
We're going to start by turning sideways. We're going to start by picking our back foot
up. From here I'm going to jump the leg that I'm standing on foward. Then I'm going to
fall back onto this foot, bringing my other knee up.
This cycle just repeats over and over. Taking the back leg, hopping forward. Taking the
knee that's up and falling back. Hopping forward and falling back. Hopping forward and falling
back. It's important to remember to keep your hop forward the same size as your step back.
If you want to travel this step you can change the size of your hops and your steps so that
you can travel to the front or the back. But in general we want to stay in place while
doing the Reject.
Let's try this a little bit faster and put it to some music. So first we're just going
to do it half-time, nice and slow starting with this back knee up. You're going to go
front, back, front, back, front, back, front, back. When you're ready to speed this up you're
going to keep the steps exactly the same, we're just going to double time and this is
how you do the Reject.
From here you can turn it to the front, you can travel it back, and don't forget to use
your arms. Even if you're just letting them swing you still want your arms to be involved
in the dance. Five, six, seven, eight.
And that's how you do the Reject.
