Ghost Walking Dance Basics: RM (running in place), side slide (shuffle), side pull, measuring point, running point.
Note on running and side sliding: first of all, you have to remember a few points, ? Remember to slide one foot twice at a time. When one foot is lifted, the next step is to drop the lifted foot forward and slide the other foot backward, and the foot sliding backward should be sliding backward with the full foot next to the ground so that the base is stable.
Don't slide backward with your toes pointing to the ground, that run is not for novices, it's for veterans to slide backward with their toes only when they advance to the big step. When you first start to learn, one foot lifted, at this time you look at your lifted foot, the heel upward backward, and the other leg into a straight line, and then you lift a leg will have an angle, probably 45 degrees foot, than this standard practice, more practice under the single-legged stand, help to grasp the balance.
