Warm Up and the Groove
1. Get yourself into position by placing your feet about shoulder length apart. Bend your knees slightly and get into the groove with the beat of your music. Keep your shoulders, hands and arms loose. You don't want to be stiff at all in any part of your body.
2. As you bend your knees with the beat of the music, bounce slightly up and down with the groove. Begin to shift your weight to your right foot.
3. Keep bouncing with the groove and shift your weight to your left foot. Be sure to keep bending slightly at the knees as you bounce and shift your weight right to left and left to right.
Instructions
Every time you shift your weight and perform two quick moves in a row, lean back slightly as you bounce with the beat and groove of the music.
1. Start in position with your feet about shoulder length apart. Bend your knees slightly and bounce slightly up and down with the beat of the music. Shift your weight to your left foot and face your body toward the right.
2. Bring your arms up in front of you and imagine your right arm is a mirror. Check yourself out in this "mirror" twice with the beat of the music.
3. Next, shift your weight to your right foot and face your body slightly to the left. With your right hand, mimic a brushing of your left shoulder twice with the beat of the music.
4. Shift your weight back to your left foot and face your body slightly to the right again. With both hands this time, mimic two brushings of your right pant leg up around your thigh area. Lift your right leg up off the floor as you brush with both hands.
5. Now, shift your weight back to your right foot and face your body slightly to the left. Bring your left hand up and place it behind your head very quickly.
6. Follow this by dropping your left hand and bringing your right hand up to the right side of your head. Perform each of these hand movements with the beat of the music.

We did the Prep in the 80s. The Prep was a style of dress as well. Penny loafers, polo shirts, Oxford collar shirts with designer jeans like Jordache, etc.
I am 26 now and this sounds like a really great time!!
Exactly
Right. He was wrong in his description of the word @0:50.
It was literally a group of kids in mid to late eighties school called preps. Just like there were thrashers (skaters), heads (heavy metal heads), new wave, jocks, b-boys. It was a crowd that dressed alike and hung out together.
@@elkay18 Yeah. Dude completely missed the memo.
Definitely the ‘80s
I remember the prep from the 80s bcus my mom and aunts use to do it. I was just a little girl but I remember.
I still do the old dances when I'm clowning around and I'm 50. My grandkids be like paw paw you can dance. I have them doing these old dances right along with me.
Too cute
Paw Paw still got it and now the Grandkids can learn how to get down the old school way. I Love It🥰
This was an 80's dance that may have extended into the 90's.
News flash pardner, the Prep was back in the 80s Alexander O'Neal and Cherrelle song "Saturday Love" and that was a great song to dance and do the Prep on even in the early 90s.
You're amazing!!! I am 31 weeks pregnant now and learning to dance hip-hop with you brings sooo many cool emotions! Thank you!
No matter how old it is, I still like to watch it being performed. Especially when you go it down to a T.
Yes, agreed! Geri Jernigans!
Where are you? I’d love to see more🤗
90's dance move? I was doing it in 1982... crazy lol
😂😂😂😍 OMG my daughter just walked in on me doing this dance, of course I got mom what are you doing¿ Baby that's the prep 😘😍
Loved this dance back in the day!
Straight Up 80's.... but if you don't know, you don't know
That's why before he educate or dance history he needs to know when it started if he dont know he should stop til he learn the history of the dance moves.
Thanks for educating me on the origin. Its nice to know the meaning behind the dance
heard about this dance from Manny Fresh, 'Conversation' Thanks for showing me
Pleeeasee keep these videos coming, I will share them everywhere just keep em comin, thanks a lot :D
My older sisters use to kill this in the 80s he said 90s prep came out in the 80s
WoW I can remember prepping it up Detroit Old School dancing ( The Sing, And the New Dance Show).
jayman8940 Do you mean "The Scene"
Who did the actual Prep song?? It came out around 86' or 87'!! I was in the 3rd or 4th grade!! Been trying to track it down for years!!
I did the prep in the 80’s I don’t remember it being like this however, dances do evolve around the US/World and have different names. Honestly, I’m so old I don’t remember how the prep was done 😂😂😂 🙄😭😞 Feel free to add a link if you have a prep dance video. My knees are warmed up and ready for action!😅
90's?? Dog we started that in Detroit in the early 80's
Yes💯💯💯
Yes, we were doing the “prep” in the early 80s overseas IN the Marines with women, AND from Japan, Philippines, Korea, and base women in the military. One thing I have learned after retiring, and watching my 32 year old daughter, that there are a lot of trends, fashions, dances, music, dress attire, slang, and overall behaviors, were done in the late 70s, early 80s, and the present that were done, annihilated, and brought back from old to new. You millennials where watching your parents, aunts, and uncles without a clue, and picked it up. Now you don’t know where it come from, and you claim it as yours. Get original kids, and creative, but do your research before you say, “look what we can do”... lol
DEFINITELY 80's
Right
80s FaReal!!!
🤣
I learned the prep in Germany in1987 before the 90's

why you stopped uploading videos?
Because he was giving wrong information on the dances and people called him out on it instead of him being embarrassed he shouldve just took some education on it.

@@leftamantis everyone that was around during the 80s that's the source lol I'm 43 I grew up in the time when the dance was popular so that's good enought source look up music videos from 84 85 video soul that's your other source,
@@leftamantis I was there that's source soul train 84 85 is your other source again wasn't noone doing this in the 90s they would've got laughted off the dance floor because the time has passed. 90s was the running man the butter fly ,the kid and play and more these are my time periods so I pretty much remember what dances people were doing and weren't doing we had school dances the prep was not what is kids were doing at those dances those the dances my sister whos 49 and cousin who was 50 was doing as preteens they use to do it all the time that and the Whoop and cabbage patch those are some of the 80s dances and the prep,the roger rabbit the snake people were snaking all way up from 83 to 86. had the troop as well the butt .

No that’s not!
The Prep is not 90s, git outta here....that is from the 80s....get ur facts straight
Канал сдох(((
This shit ain't no prep
Say it again I dont know what he was doing
I wouldn’t be seen dead ever doing a faddish dance move like that. When I dance my body moves whatever way the music makes it move. I don’t stand there thinking about some lame move I rehearsed off UA-cam.
