Step 1
Remember that each movement in this dance is doubled. Each step learned will be done twice in rapid-fire succession.

Follow the first step by clapping your hands twice.
Step 4
Put your hands out with the palms facing down. Wave the right hand over the top of the left hand twice in a row. Switch hands and wave the left over the right twice in a row.
Step 5
Make a fist with each hand with the thumbs facing each other. Take the right fist and tap the top of the left fist twice in a row. Switch hands and tap the right fist with the left twice.
Step 6
Make a hitchhiking gesture with your right hand, jerking the thumb over the right shoulder twice in a row. Do the same thing with your left hand.
