It’s 2024 !! I went through a few videos on UA-cam today then found yours, it’s awesome explanation for beginners. It’s my first day starting this and already got some basic moves from your tutorial. Thanks man :)
If you're used to going barefoot your feet toughen up to the extent that it's almost impossible to hurt them. I grew up in Africa and never wore shoes unless it was a formal occassion which living out in the bush was very rare! I could go over rocks, stones, boiling ground etc and feel nothing.
20,000 views! Thank you all so much and i sincerely hope this tutorial helps. Make sure to request and other tutorials! I would be willing to make one if I already havent. Also, dont forget to check the description for my other tutorials!
Wow! 10,000 views. I never thought this video would get this many views with how long it is! Thank you all for watching an i really hope this helps those of you who are watching!
Awesome. Thanks. When I searched... I was getting the lousy looking cutting shapes type of tutorial... I don't want to learn that... This is by far the best tutorial I've seen... It provides both the small and big picture to the craft.. In a way I feel like I'm learning the history of shuffle as well... Highly recommended *5 stars* *Favourited*
I cant believe this video is on the fast track to make almost 70K views!! Thank you all so much for the continued support and I really do hope this tutorial is helpful still for those learning. Much love everyone!
Honestly I learnt a lot of these moves prior to watching this video and I'm recording myself thinking why do I look so gay. Then I started watching more of the old school Melbourne shuffle videos and I'm still sitting here trying to get myself to flow. It finally came to me that ive been performing the more "cali style" since I learnt by watching their videos. It was the simple things such as a wider stance, straight posture and those simple yet effective hand movements that sealed the deal. Your tutorial was much appreciated!
This is a great video man thank you. I started shuffling in like 2010 but I eventually stopped practicing and felt like I wasn't really getting any better. I'm starting to get back into dancing now and this tutorial helped a lot and is going to inspire me to keep going forward. Thank you!.
I love Shuffling and dance and general, all you guys make great tutorials for shuffling, but theses dance moves that you'll gives names to have been done along time ago. I'm from New York and have been dancing since the 80's and on any giving weekend at a house party or a techno club you'll see people "Rocky kicking" or "Aurora Kicking" without the Rocky or Aurora present. As you can tell from the movements, Hip Hop has a big influence on all these dance moves, they are great, they don't need any labels or credits, they've been done since the beginning, Keeping on dancing and teaching, take the ego out and everyone will have fun without the hate.
Naming moves has nothing to do with ego. The reason they are called what they are is because no one know what they were and had to justify them by naming them after the people they first saw it from on youtube. As you can probably recall, Melbourne shuffling wasnt very prominent on youtube until about late 2006. The trend has been around since 1981 roughly. Peoples styles have evolved since then and these very same people invented their own moves and ways of shuffling such as sacco, mikki, rocky, reece, and various other early youtube shufflers. These moves are, again, named simply to identify what they are.
I just fell in love with you because I've tried so many tutorials and just from yours I was able to learn everything on the spot :) in gonna practice since I'm gonna be going to EDC this year.
I'm so glad that eventually he went onto his front porch, cuz that garage gravel was giving me the creeps. he-he You definitely make a great dance instructor. :)
I agree. I barely just started and this tutorial really helped me! Specially with the kicks and spins! Also he manages to actually talk and explain stuff not just have a beat and show in practice for some seconds. Also, very useful tips and advice at the end. Thanks Aurora mate!
@@madclowntapia I actually have a video on my channel of my top 10 inspirations. Those individuals to this day are my top biggest influences even though they are pretty old now.
Soft style: Jasper Forks - 'River Flows In You' (Extended Instrumental) Trance: Christian Burns, Paul Oakenfold & JES - As We Collide (Orjan Nilsen Remix) Bionic Base-Eternity Talk (DJ Space Raven & DJ Alpine Remix) Hard Trance: Log:One & DJ Wragg - Creatures Hardstyle: Steve Hill & Dark By Design - Masif Theme (Original Mix) Frontliner - Keep It Up Preview Brennan Heart - We Come and We Go There are many songs man. Just look up Trance, Hard Trance, or Hardstyle and you'll find plenty =)
Good god man! How on earth did you do this with bare feet?! Best tutorial, btw. This is the vid I watched to learn how to shuffle. It's been a couple of years, but this recently got recommended to me again by UA-cam (don't know why I'm only commenting now, years later lol).
I always have shuffled with bare feet. I cant really shuffle in shoes that well and socks will obviously get ripped and worn. My bare feet are used to the abuse and done get torn up like they did when I first started shuffling base in 2011. Thank you so much for the compliment! I never wouldve imagined that this tutorial would get so insanely popular with how long it is. I personally thought that my way of teaching wasn't going to be clear enough or specific enough for people but I guess I did a good job in making this and showing how everything comes together. This video will soon reach 100k views. That will be absolutely insane. It almost has 1000 likes, which is also insane. I am so grateful for the support all of you have given me throughout the years and on this video especially.
I do. I'm not that great at speaking on camera. Since this was a single take, I had a hard time using my logic of Melbourne Shuffle but for the most part, I pulled it off. I had to basically make an entire script on the spot without faulting so I was more concerned about not stalling.
Dude like ya tutorial but I can do it better on my left foot than my right even tho I'm right handed lol I wanna learn more money moves to put into my criss cross n foot flick I'm old school but loving this dancing bud
2019: Why did it take me 5 years to finally find a tutorial with MENS' style of shuffle dance ? Suggestion: Its helpful whenever the instructor can demo a step with their BACK TO THE CAMERA .... then we can copy exactly as we face the screen.
hey man i have been shuffling for a few years now but never had a real background learning so i am going to start making videos of my progress and if you could please give corrective criticism so i can improve quickly would be appreciated i want to be my best for edc this year
+Tweaks Unleashed Think of it like this; running man in place and when you want to transition, just take your leg behind you and stretch it a little further backwards. When you do this, you will have to reset back into that high knee I was talking about when I taught the running man. In that instance, you will be "gliding" away from where you originally started. Just keep doing that until you get to a spot where you want to start going back to where you started. There are many many ways to glide. The way I do it is a bit more advanced, considerably. You basically tstep and tap the ground with your opposing leg and move from side to side that way. Everyone has at one point or another, had trouble learning to glide. Just keep practicing man, youll get it =). If youd like to learn from a tutorial of mine, there is one in the description of this video. See if that can help. If not, contact me on facebook: "Nick Hodgkin". My picture is myself and my wife. Im in my dress blues and she's in a dress. I will make you a tutorial, Personally. Let me know if any of this helped my man. =)
really good video. every time you drag your bare feet on the asphalt I cringe on the inside though, don't know how you're not tearing your feet up lol. thx tho
Aurora how do u make a reverse step where u like make running man and u take ur "behind foot" forward like not doing full running man , lke u do it again from the beginning, hard to explain, hope u understand xD
i’ve been shuffling for a bit passively but recently started focusing on melbourne instead of cutting shapes and hardjump. the problem with my running man is that even though it feels like i’m putting in energy into my kicks, it looks like i’m lazily walking. i’ve tried bending my back, arm movements, and moving how high/low to put my leg, but i just seems off. is this common? :-(
Great tutorial! I was wondering, could you identify the technique the Robot Guy is using in LMFAO's "Party Rock Anthem" music video, here? ua-cam.com/video/KQ6zr6kCPj8/v-deo.htmlm31s. I'm trying to find a tutorial that teaches this specific move, but have no idea what it's called.
If you start watching from 27:40 there's something happening inside the house on the right side. I don't know man your house might be hunted or I'mt just tripping 😅
It’s 2024 !! I went through a few videos on UA-cam today then found yours, it’s awesome explanation for beginners. It’s my first day starting this and already got some basic moves from your tutorial. Thanks man :)
Bare foot on Tarmac with power tools laying around!!! Good tutorial
im 14 and missed out on this stuff so watching now hope i’m able to do it well
Don't worry bro, I was born at the height of the Melbourne Shuffle era (2001) so I missed out as well.
i wasnt even alive during the melbourne shuffle era ahahahah
let's revive this dance
Shuffling bare foot, what a man.
Im amazed that the ground wasn't soaked in blood by the end of the video....
PUT SOME GOD DAMN SHOES ON I CAN'T WATCH THIS VIDEO PROPERLY
You beat me to this comment by 5 years... But amen to that. I can't even do running man on a wooden floor at my place bare foot.
If you're used to going barefoot your feet toughen up to the extent that it's almost impossible to hurt them. I grew up in Africa and never wore shoes unless it was a formal occassion which living out in the bush was very rare! I could go over rocks, stones, boiling ground etc and feel nothing.

This is really the Ultimate Mel-Shuffle Tutorial!
It have almost everything in it!
Really nice! Helped a lot! :D

Spectacular tutorial!!! I especially like the length, because it helps measure time, to practice at least 30 minutes, every day!
Amazing the best tutorial I've ever seen, and I promise you that I have seen all the tutorials that exists, thanks for this🙏🔥
"express your feeling thru your dance" - that's deep!
that's what art is ultimately for dude, expression

I'm so glad that eventually he went onto his front porch, cuz that garage gravel was giving me the creeps. he-he
You definitely make a great dance instructor. :)

Very down ti earth video. Definitely helpful and not intimidating! Thanks! Im in the process of learning very helpful 👏
I like to learn one new move at a time. And then i practice that move with all my others till i feel i have a good grasp then go onto the next move!
Great vid thought I would never understand the Melbourne shuffle until this !!! Thanks so much

I agree. I barely just started and this tutorial really helped me! Specially with the kicks and spins! Also he manages to actually talk and explain stuff not just have a beat and show in practice for some seconds. Also, very useful tips and advice at the end. Thanks Aurora mate!

Good tutorial. I'm learning how to do kicks because of this.
Excellent Tutorial, are you more Melbourne Ontario than Melbourne Australia! Anyway EXCELLENT work I just love this!! Thanks heaps man!!
Actually, I learned by watching other shufflers. The ones that inspire me are the ones that influenced my style to be what it is today =)
Who would you identify as your biggest influences if you had to list them out?
@@madclowntapia I actually have a video on my channel of my top 10 inspirations. Those individuals to this day are my top biggest influences even though they are pretty old now.

this is an amazing tutorial. you describe it all perfect.
your feet must be shredded
Barefoot....damn....OG man.
Awesome tutorial, wonder if you're still dancing.
I recall seeing shuffles closely resembling Melbourne as early as 1998 in the US.
I 100% still dance 🤙
Nice video, downloaded it thanks for the tips
Damn! MY feet hurt just watching him do all this on gravel barefoot!!!!
Best tutorial ever! Thanks man :DDD

hey man, if you had to pick the top 3-5 shufflers who would they be?
I do. I'm not that great at speaking on camera. Since this was a single take, I had a hard time using my logic of Melbourne Shuffle but for the most part, I pulled it off. I had to basically make an entire script on the spot without faulting so I was more concerned about not stalling.

This video is almost at 40,000 views! I cant believe it!
Aurora Productions You deserve it dude! This is the best tutorial I have seen yet.
Awhh! Thanks man! =)
+Aurora Productions I am currently learning this and having the damndest of times getting down the Tstep.
you never taught to glide yet ive been shuffling for a long time ive seen people glide side to side many times but i cant figure out how to do it

Can you make a tutorial or just a video in general, (decent length,) that shows you shuffling to each of the 4 different genres? Thanks!
really good video. every time you drag your bare feet on the asphalt I cringe on the inside though, don't know how you're not tearing your feet up lol. thx tho
Aurora how do u make a reverse step where u like make running man and u take ur "behind foot" forward like not doing full running man , lke u do it again from the beginning, hard to explain, hope u understand xD
Does shuffling cause knee pains? Is there like a proper technique to prevent injuring your knees? Any answers appreciated!
Awesome!!!
I mastered the rocky kick before I mastered kicks XD
Because it was much easier lol
Even being a top shuffler it would hurt your feet what planet was he on when he did this video bare feet😂
Wow no shoes you’re a legend dude . Do you have ig ?
oh god this is fun
who is the shuffler @18:48? =)
And ofc great video dude! Gave me also some training tips i never used before. :)
-skyrokz
cheers legend

is this common? :-(
melb shuffle is hardstyle, you need to go hard bro
nearly 100k !!!!
do you slide your feet on the ground during the running man, or do you lift them a bit off the ground?
lift them a bit off
nice poster
The real talent here is that his feet aren’t bleeding
hey dude, do you have some stuff for rockers? tnx
hey aurora did u get the skills from a dance school or a person or from youtube?
cause i really want to know, im still having trouble with this.
FREE 30 MIN LESSON
REECEEEEE *-*
Sure!
Yahhh Tranquility Base
The only thing im trying to learn is how to spin, don't know why i'am having a hard time learning it.
Do they not have shoes in Australia???
I love that you're barefoot. So good for the body!!
i do kickboxing i guess it helps balancing kicks ahahah
great tutorial and everything but jesus christ, i was so worried about your feet on that concret! ahaha
Great tutorial! I was wondering, could you identify the technique the Robot Guy is using in LMFAO's "Party Rock Anthem" music video, here? ua-cam.com/video/KQ6zr6kCPj8/v-deo.htmlm31s. I'm trying to find a tutorial that teaches this specific move, but have no idea what it's called.
Looks like the spongebob to me
Rudy Harrelson II Yup it's a spongebob but he just doesn't lift his legs very high. It's more of like a flatbob
If you start watching from 27:40 there's something happening inside the house on the right side. I don't know man your house might be hunted or I'mt just tripping 😅
Looks like it's just light flickering from the TV...
hey dude, what do you need that snowbike for?
Im from maine and thats where this was filmed. It snows a lot during winter so its appropriate to own one lol
J boi and thanks man!
No way you did this bare foot bro XD
music in between a bit loud. im inside and my parents are asleep XD
Looks like it would be painful to do that barefoot on asphalt >.>
Shut up & dance😁
Nice clothes man haha
Rip his 👖..
Bulythe way he is doing great
14:00 Doing that with my arm without shuffling won't make it look clean. It would make it look quite dirty, actually.
The guys even got no sneakers :(
-feets after the running man on the asphalt.
