Pratica di Shadowing: Shuffling for Beginners: Your First 5 Moves to Master - Impara a parlare inglese con i video

So the running band consists of two parts, one being your landing position.

Play around with your stance.

You can either have a more narrow stance or a wider stance, whatever feels more comfortable for you.

From your stance you're going to come up to what's called Perch position, I'm going to hop my feet together back to center.

and lift my back leg up now i'm going to land back into that landing position but with this foot forward instead.

and then I just repeat.

Together. and land.

The most important thing to remember that you want both of these actions to happen at the same time.

So I land my feet at the same time, And I cough.

together at the same time.

Otherwise it's going to look more like you're trying to run in place.

So when you're doing this move to the music,

With the counts it's and One and two and Three. And four.

So you're landing on every count, and you're together on every half.

So a couple of tips with this movement.

When you are landing with both your feet out, make sure to have a slight bend in your knees, especially the front knee, because you don't want to be locked out.

because then when you hop back to center, you're going to have to re -bend your legs and it's almost going to give you like an extra

little hiccup in your running mat.

with a bend in your knees so that as soon as you land, you can immediately Pop back to that perch position.

- Stop.

Another tip with this, I like to lean a little bit forward with my Running Man.

This puts more weight onto my front foot.

It helps me keep that bend in my leg.

You'll notice

when i am centered my knee wants to kind of lock out a little bit more

when i'm leaning forward a little bit over this front foot i also just have more control and it helps me

hop back to center.

Another tip with this is to make your bounces or your hops as small as possible.

When I'm in my bottom position, When I hop to center, I'm not going to fully hop off the ground, I'm almost going to mix a hop and a slide

because the hop should be just high enough to overcome any friction between your shoes and the surface.

So when I come to center, my front foot kind of hops and slides.

Back to this position.

Same when you're landing this foot back, make the hop as small as possible.

- Yeah.

This will prevent you from getting a very bouncy running man and will make it look a

Last and final tip is to make sure both your feet are as flat as possible.

We don't want to be completely elevated on our toes.

Otherwise, it's not going to give a dead illusion that you are floating.

So make sure to keep those feet as flat as possible.

Let's do it together.

So, five, six seven eight and one two three four five six seven eight one two three four five six - Seven.

Start out slow and then work your way up to a fast -paced So with the T -step,

the first thing to practice is your pivoting foot.

So that is the foot that is going heel, - Ciao.

- Thank you.

I'm just picking up my heel Moving it to the side.

and then picking up my toe and moving it to the side.

When I'm on my left foot, I'm going to the right, - Heel. So, Heel.

So, on my right foot I'm going to the left, picking up my - Kiel.

- Tap.

Neil.

Your other foot, all it's doing is tapping every time your heel come in.

One.

and - Two.

And so when I bring in my toe, my leg comes back up to this perch position.

Here, land your foot.

Toe, come back up to courage.

One. and Two.

and Couple of tips with the T -step.

Really build that strength in your leg to be able to pivot

to the side with just your leg and not having to move.

Lean or twist.

Try keeping your torso as straight as possible and just Use.

Your foot. To pivot.

This is all where your motion should come from.

That's what's going to give your T -step a very controlled motion look.

With the tapping foot, use it to stabilize yourself and keep your balance.

So you don't barely touching to the floor, you can use it to stabilize yourself and really put a little bit of weight down.

You know, don't put too much, you don't want to look like you're stepping to the side.

but use it as a way to stabilize yourself.

as you move across.

If you're gonna have a side that feels more comfortable, just make sure to practice it evenly on both sides you don't make

that problem even worse now with the t -step you don't

just have to tap the same way every time you don't just have to go like this, you can tap in whatever way you want.

You can tap to the side.

you can kick out.

you can tap forwards, you can tap backwards, you can tap your heel you can tap your toe.

So I could go like one, Two.

Three.

Or I could even alternate it back and forth and I could go one, Two.

Three.

Play around with it, there's a lot of variation just within this one move.

but the key elements to remember is one foot is pivoting heel tall

and the other foot is tapping on every foot count let's try it together we'll go for this way

and we're back the other way five six seven, eight, go one.

Two, three, four.

Back the other way.

Five, six, seven, eight, go one, two, - Here.

- Okay.

As always, practice it slow and then work your way up to a faster tempo.

What you're going to do is you're going to start out with fifth position, which if you don't know what fifth position is, I want you to start by bringing your heels together,

toes pointed out, I'm going to bring my right, - What?

Touch my heel to my toe so our knees

and her toes are pointed outwards now what we're gonna do is we're gonna pick up our back foot

and and pivot our legs so that our knees and our toes now point inward.

So I'm going to bring up my left leg and go

And now what I'm going to do is I'm going to go back into fifth position with my other foot in front.

And I'm again going to pivot my knees and my toes And then you just repeat, right leg comes out up!

Knees come in.

100

Drop in front, back into fifth.

101

And this is the forwards Charleston.

102

If I want to go backwards, instead of picking up my back foot, I'm just going to pick up my front foot, so in this case my right foot.

103

It's gonna come up and I'm gonna pivot.

104

and And then I'm going to Drop it back.

105

Left leg comes.

106

Up Left leg drops back into that fifth position.

107

So from the back, we start here and set.

108

And One and Two. And...

109

Three.

110

Now go backwards. And...

111

One.

112

and - Two. And three.

113

Couple of tips with the Charleston.

114

One is to keep a bend in your knees.

115

If you are completely straight -legged, it's gonna look really thick.

116

The more of a bend you have, the bigger of a shape you're going to create and the bigger it's going to look.

117

The other thing is with most of shuffling, you want to keep your feet flat.

118

But with cutting shapes, you can be more on the balls of your feet.

119

When I'm doing the Charleston, I like to stay a little bit elevated.

120

This will again help you keep that bend in your legs and make it look a lot less stiff.

121

One I know. and one.

122

See how I'm kind of on my toes there.

123

And then the other thing is I like to add a little bit of hop to my Charleston so instead

124

Pivoting my feet in and out.

125

I actually kind of hop and pivot out so I go I and you kind of hear that hopma happen

126

And then the same thing when I went back and fit, I hop into position.

127

I'm out.

128

Hot M hop out, hop in.

129

So it's the difference between pivot, pivot, pivot and Hop and hop and hop.

130

Well, I just think that gives it a bit more of a shuffling look rather than a Swing dancing on 11.

131

To make your Charleston look even bigger and give it a bigger effect, try swinging your leg out further.

132

So instead of just coming like right here.

133

Try.

134

Swinging your leg out further.

135

to give it a bigger look.

136

So let's try it together.

137

We'll do four forward and four back.

138

Five, six, seven, eight, and one, two, three, four, five, five,

139

six, seven eight and if you are struggling with that transition going forwards and backwards

140

Practice just staying on one foot and going down. with.

141

Back and forth.

142

Back and...

143

So we start our Polly Pocket or X Step in Purge position.

144

From here, I'm going to spread my legs while also twisting and rotating my body like so.

145

So my right leg was up, and I twist to the left Now I'm going to come back up to my perch position, bringing my back leg - Up.

146

Then I'm going to repeat on the other side left leg goes forward and twists and to the right

147

and I land my front foot on its heel.

148

Perch position.

149

And I repeat.

150

Right leg up.

151

Bend your right leg forward and twist to the left Come back to the couch.

152

left side comes forward and we twist to the brain.

153

You can kind of think about it like making an ex with your legs.

154

You can also think about it as doing the Shaper Running Man while twisting your body, right?

155

So the Shaper Running Man It's like this.

156

but instead of just landing forward You're not twisting.

157

- Thank you.

158

your hips to kind of make that exhale.

159

So tips for the Polycockets /X stuff is to remember that it's all in your hips.

160

I'm not completely rotating my full body.

161

I'm just twisting my lower half like so.

162

So I'm trying to keep my torso as straight as Possible.

163

And then I come back to center.

164

Notice how my torso didn't move much.

165

and then I twist the other direction.

166

You can use your arms also to kind of help you with that twist.

167

kind of help you go like this when you're twisting.

168

your lower body.

169

Another tip is to really get momentum with it.

170

This will make the poly pocket a lot easier.

171

Use that swinging of your hips to build that momentum.

172

Let's try it together for one eight count.

173

We'll go five.

174

Six seven, eight, go, one, two, three, four, five.

175

Six.

176

Seven.

177

Okay? And that's it.

178

This band is very simple.

179

All we're going to do is we're going to do the running man while we rotate in a circle, staying centered on one side.

180

Starting in a perch position, you're going to land both your feet out and simultaneously rotate either counterclockwise or clockwise.

181

I'm going to start going counterclockwise, so I'm going to go this way and land my feet out.

182

Then as I come together in perch, I'm going to continue that rotation and rotate as I come to perch and then I just repeat Rotate, land in the running end.

183

Rotate, crunch rotate land, rotate perch, rotate land, rotate perch.

184

With this bend make sure to stay centered on the spot that you are spinning, right?

185

So I'm not moving over here.

186

I'm not traveling with it at all.

187

I always stay right at this spot.

188

and stay centered over it.

189

as I spin in a circle.

190

It's also important to make sure that your shoulders stay in line and square with your body.

191

It shouldn't be like this or like this or like this.

192

I'm always facing the same way my feet land.

193

Just rotate everything at once as you go in a circle.

194

So let's do the spin counterclockwise for eight counts.

195

Five, six, seven, eight, go.

196

One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight.

197

And you can have this spin take as many running mans as you want.

198

So you can have it take a lot and make the spin a little bit slower.

199

So something like...

200

this or you can rotate more with each step and therefore take less steps in order to make it go quicker.

201

So something like one

Cos'è la tecnica dello Shadowing?

Shadowing è una tecnica di apprendimento delle lingue supportata da studi scientifici, originariamente sviluppata per la formazione dei traduttori professionisti e resa popolare dal poliglotta Dr. Alexander Arguelles. Il metodo è semplice ma potente: ascolti un audio in inglese di madrelingua e lo ripeti immediatamente ad alta voce — come un'ombra che segue il parlante con un ritardo di solo 1–2 secondi. A differenza dell'ascolto passivo o degli esercizi di grammatica, lo shadowing costringe il tuo cervello e i muscoli della bocca a elaborare e riprodurre simultaneamente i modelli di discorso reale. La ricerca dimostra che migliora significativamente la precisione della pronuncia, l'intonazione, il ritmo, il discorso connesso, la comprensione dell'ascolto e la fluidità del parlato — rendendolo uno dei metodi più efficaci per la preparazione alla prova di speaking dell'IELTS e per la comunicazione reale in inglese.
