- Welcome back to dance tutorials with Niki and Sammy.
Today, we're teaching you--
- No, you strike a pose.
- Welcome back to dance tutorials with Niki and Sammy.
(ambient acoustic music)
- Today we're gonna teach you the art of dabbing.
- And it's not
a sexual thing.
- No, you don't dab in then out.
Or round and round.
So we're gonna break this down into a few easy steps
for you to follow.
You can do this whether you're old, young,
small, tall,
- Ginger.
Secondly, if you're old
probably don't dance.
Not for your health, it's just embarrassing.
And secondly, if you have a
marginally successful Youtube channel, also don't do this
because we're trying to get views from this.
Okay, let's get into the dance!
- If you've seen any of our other successful dance tutorials
you'll know that we'll teach via
seeking an alternative meaning to what we're
presenting you with.
So for example, if I told you to do the birthday dance,
- You're gonna throw your arms backwards
and spasm.
- You can't say that.
- Spasming is a thing, yes it is.
- I don't know what we can or can't say anymore.
It's problematic.
All you'll need for this video is an area of your body
that you can quickly thrust your face into,
and then resume doing what you're doing.
- But it's non-sexual, like an armpit.
Though some people do find that sexual.
- And not somebody else's body.
- Make sure before you start dancing,
that you can spread your arms out wide,
and spin without hitting anything.
- And being as we're using our arms for this move,
you want to make sure you stretch
every other part of your body first.
Sometimes it's good to have a partner.
Grab my leg.
- No.
- Grab my leg!
(gasps)
- So make sure you look good while you're stretching as well
because everyone--
- Step one, loose legs.
Not too loose.
- Cause it's bad for your morals.
You're gonna go like this with your head.
Boom.
- And I like to imagine that a bird has just
(beep) on my shoulder.
- Or very close to you
and you're looking down in disgust.
And also, doing that thing
where you wanna know if you're sweating,
but you don't wanna be obvious about it.
- The next step is to make sure you locate your arm.
- It's here, for those that don't know.
And the other one is also here.
- So put them out in front of you.
There you go, that's the next step.
- And now, you're doing this.
- Picking up the shopping but I've dropped some.
I'm picking up the shopping but I've dropped some.
Picking up the shop--
This is a controversial part.
Some people believe
that you need to thrust your arm to the side.
I however, like to believe
that you thrust your arm to the back side.
But do let me know in the comments if I'm doing this wrong.
- Kinda like you're wafting a fart away.
So.
A couple times just for demonstration, go.
Dab.
Dab again.
And one more for a lark, dibby dab.
- Dab, dab.
- Dipshit.
Very important part that we forgot to tell you
is you combine the dab with other dance moves.
We have done a Hit The Quan music video
and that kind of goes like that.
- Hit the quan, hit the qu--
- Dab.
So, you can also customize this.
I like Birthday.
It's your birthday, it's your.
But sometimes, because the fast momentum you have,
actually get whiplash.
- Or, a favorite is the Macarena.
Or like.
♫ why am I dabbing ♫
That kinda works as well.
- You can also dad dance to this--
- Which I am an expert at
because it's kind of just how I dance.
- So it's just a bit of.
