I believe we have some shufflers around, so just check back in a few and I'm sure they will have responded! (IMG:http://www.glowsticking.com/forums/style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

hmmmmm...

hand movements are my enemy...

best advice I can give you is to get your feet movement down to were you dont really have to think about it anymore....

it takes some time, but eventually you will be able to shuffle any which way and not really think much about it..if that makes sense..

once you got that down, just start letting your arms loose, let them move to wherever they want, let them sort of be controled by the movement of your body while shuffling, it looks really relaxed when you get the hang of it....

since I personally dislike majority of "youtube" shuffelers hand movements, i cant give you advice on that type of "flarey" hand motions..haha

hope that helps..

Check out some of BigMilan's Videos on youtube. hes got some tuts on melb shuffle. Also i wouldnt worry about hand movements yet, keep working on what you can do and add stuff to it. hand movements are kinda a last imo.

But honestly hand movements are just what ever you make it out to be. There is no set rule saying *oh you have to have one hand on your chest and other extended forward and spin* just do what you want. Experiment with things spontaneously. This is why it's called practice. But as rorok said, I wouldn't worry about hand movements just yet until you are extremely fluid in your transitions and what not.

Amen to all that's been said (IMG:http://www.glowsticking.com/forums/style_emoticons/default/tongue.gif) No worries dude, you'll get on with it, it doesn't have to be anything fancy, just pointing to the sides or such works. And yeah, get down the basics first, polish them out, and later on worry about the arms; you can add other upper body dances if you like, such as tecktonik, liquid, or popping.
