Hey guys! So the next dance tutorial you guys have been requesting is "Hey Mama" by David Guetta,
Afrojack, Nicki Minaj and Bebe Rexha.
So myself, Melly, and my cousin Stephanie... we're gonna break it down for you guys.
Alright, so let's get started!
So we're starting with
our right foot stepping open and you're opening your arms up
and then we're circling to the left. So when you step on your left foot
your arms are circling and then you open up to the right again
but this time your arms are going up, down and then you circle again.
So it looks like this.
Five, six, seven, eight...
It goes open and circle
up, down, circle.
Moving on. You're opening up your arms again, stepping on your right
but this time you go
right, left, right, open, right, left
So your arms are open and then they're opening up and your
elbows are opening up and your hands are still in fists so it looks like
right, step, step, open, step, step
Moving on. We're crossing our right foot over our left
Right, and your left shoulder is up while your right shoulder is down, so it looks like
cross, open and then head down, head up.
So from the top. Six, seven, eight...
It goes open, circle, up, down
circle and open, step, step, open, step, step, cross, touch, head up.
Moving on. We're stepping on our left
and our right foot comes up and we're throwing our arms away
and then we step again and we throw our arms again
but we're jumping together. So it looks like this. So we just did
down, up. We go throw, step, throw, jump together.
And moving on.
We're throwing our arm - one, two, three.
So on that third, we're throwing our head away and your left arm is opening up
and your right arm is going right, left, right.
Moving on. We're stepping to the right
and left and right and right. And your arms are going around.
So it goes around with your right
left and double, double. So it looks like this.
right and left and right and right and
So from the top
Six, seven, eight.
It goes open, circle, up, down, circle
and open, step, step, open, step, step, cross, touch, head up and throw
and throw and right, right, right
and circle, circle, circle, circle
Moving on. This next step is kind of a
twist with your hips and you're going, so you're going
right, left and then you have your left foot
free and your weight is on your right foot. You want to twist your leg in and then you're
twisting to the left, left, right and then now your right foot goes
back. So it looks like this. And right and left and right
and left. And while you do this, your hands are clapping
and three, four, five, six, seven, eight
So let's try that from the claps and we're actually doing two eight-counts of that.
So we just got done doing right, left, right, right
and step by on your right and you're twisting
and clapping... seven, eight and
one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight
Before we move on, let's try that all from the top.
five, six, seven, eight. It goes...
Open, circle, up, down
circle and open, step, step, up, step, step, cross, touch
head up, throw, step, throw, jump together
Your right arm is throw, throw, throw away
and circle, left and right, right
and we're twisting two, three, four
five, six, seven, eight
and one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight
And when you twist and clap you're moving
shifting to the right and then you go back, front
in those two eight-counts.
So moving on
Our feet are together. We just ended the claps.
Our legs are together. We're opening down for two counts
and our hips are going right, left, right, left.
And now we circle our hips
and circle our hips. So it looks like this
Five, six, seven, eight It goes...
down two, right, left, right, left
and your hip is circling to the right and the right
Moving on. We're closing our legs to open them up
and smack, smack, smack, smack.
And then we go right, left over our tummies and then over our mouths. So it goes
right, left, right, left and then you dip down
and then we're gonna move back. So let's try that from the down.
Five, six, seven, eight.
It goes down two, right, left, right, left and circle
and circle and close, open
smack, smack, smack, smack, tummy, tummy, mouth, mouth and dip down
Now moving on. We're stepping on our right foot and our hips go with our foot.
We're doing it back for an eight-count. So it goes
Hey ma-mama, hey ma-mama
and right, left, right, left, right, left
On this last right, left you open up right, left. And now your hands are gonna go
smack on your hips, smack on your head
and dip down. And now you're gonna to the right
Get in a low plie and your hips go
right, left, right, left. But your arms are open and snapping.
So you're in a deep plie and you're going right, left, right, left
For the last eight-count we're circling. Our hands are on our knees
We're circling our hips to the right and we're stepping forward right, right, right
And then we're doing step, touch, step, touch, and pose.
And on those last step touches our hands are flicking
in, out, in, out, in, out, in, out, pose
So let's try that from the circle around
Six, seven, eight
We go right, left, right, left, right, left
step, step, smack, smack, and dip
and to the right, left, right, left
and circle two, three, four
and flick and flick and flick, flick and pose
Alright, so before we try it with the music, let's try that all from the top, slowly

It goes open, circle
up, down, circle and open, step, step, open
and cross, touch, head up
throw away, jump together, right, right, throw away
and circle, circle, circle, circle
