HOW TO PLAY
1

Dancers form a loose circle around the drummer or music source.

2

Move the hips and shoulders in quick opposing rhythms while keeping small steps.

3

One dancer steps into the middle to lead a short solo phrase that the others try to copy.

4

The circle rotates so a new leader gets a turn every few rounds.

5

Continue until the music stops, then applaud whoever drew the biggest reaction from the group.
