how to do glide in dance
Answers
Find a smooth, flat surface. A hardwood floor wors best when you're gliding for the first time. You can also use the tiled or linoleum floor in your kitchen. Once you get more comfortable with it, you can use carpet if you have to, but for best results, start with the smoothest surface, which will allow you to glide with the greatest ease. If you have no luck indoors, you can start outside, on a concrete surface such as a basketball court. If you're indoors, though, you should try to practice in front of a mirror, if you can, so you can watch your own footwork.
Wear comfortable shoes with smooth soles. If you have old shoes with worn soles, don't throw them out -- they'll be perfect for gliding. You don't want a shoe with ridges on the soles or a strong grip, because you want to be able to slide along the floor as easily as you can; shoes with a strong grip will keep you from making fluid movements. If you have shoes with smooth soles and a smooth floor, you're halfway there already. Once you've got those things, stand with your feet hip-width apart.
Pivot your right foot so that your toe is facing out and raise your right heel. Put your body weight on your right toes. You should be able to lift your left foot and move it easily because there is no weight on it. Shifting your weight up and over your right toes is an important part of this step. You can keep your arms at your sides and shift them up and forward, too, to help you keep your balance. If you're a lefty, you can start with your left foot, if that makes things easier, but it doesn't really matter because you'll be using both feet the same way eventually.
The most important thing to note when you begin to learn to glide is that one of your feet should always be flat while the other foot should always be on its toes or the balls of the feet. You should always be prepared to transition from one to the other.
You should aim for the balls of your feet. If you become a true expert, you can even go for your toes, but for now, this should be just enough. The less of your foot you use, the more impressive your gliding will look. However, this will also make it more difficult to maintain your balance.
Slide your left foot out to the side and turn it out, just as you did with your right foot. Think of it as pushing your right foot up, and then pulling your left foot to the left.
Bring your left heel up as you move your right heel down. Always remember the rule about keeping one heel up and one heel down at all times. Make sure your body weight switches to the new toe each time you change feet, as it will allow you to slide your feet in and out more easily. At first, this transition may feel a little clunky, but you'll get the hang of it and will be able to make it look like one fluid motion, like a wave traveling through you.
Bring your right heel down and turn the toe inwards. Slide it toward your left foot. Just do exactly what you did with your left foot with your right foot.
Switch your toe and heel, bringing your right toes up and out and your left heel down and in. Your feet should be very close to each other, with your right heel hovering over your left toes.
Slide your left foot out to get into the starting position. Return to the place where you started -- standing with your feet hip distance apart.
Repeat these steps again until you get comfortable with them and can move fluidly. Reverse the feet so you travel back in the opposite direction. You can just start by moving all the way to the left and then all the way to the right, and then practice moving back and forth, up and down, or diagonally as you become more comfortable with gliding.
Keep practicing. If you want your glide movements to look really fluid and natural, then you've gotta keep practicing. Spend at least fifteen minutes a day gliding to your favorite hip hop beat and you'll be amazed at how quickly you improve. Once you get the footwork down, you'll be able to use your arms more, instead of just keeping them at your sides. You can put your whole body into it, and find a way to move around that is completely unique.
