Head Slides
Two variations are listed here, the mechanics are the same (hence one video) the difference is in the pattern an additional note on looking to add emphasis appears below as well.
Head Slide 1 (4/4)
To do this move you will need to slide your head from side to side using the
muscle in the back of your neck. When you practice this move you should
do it in front of a mirror so you can see if your doing it right. Another
helpful tip for practicing is to place your hands on your shoulders to
prevent them from moving. When you can move your head seperate from
your shoulders then you should try holding your hands out at the side of
your head and try to reach your ear towards your hand. This move often
takes a lot of practice. When you have it down try it with music. Slide your
head right, left, right, left. That's a 4/4 slide.
Head Slide 2 (3/4)
To do this move you will need to slide your head from side to side using the
muscle in the back of your neck. When you practice this move you should
do it in front of a mirror so you can see if your doing it right. Another
helpful tip for practicing is to place your hands on your shoulders to prevent them from moving. When you can move
your head seperate from your shoulders then you should try holding your hands out at the side of your head and try
to reach your ear towards your hand. This move often takes a lot of practice. Slide your head right, left, right, pause,
left, right, left, pause. That's a 3/4 slide.
Looking
To add to these moves you can look in the direction your sliding. For example if your doing a 3/4 slide going left,
right, left; look left. If your going right, left, right; look right. This will add a slight emphasis to the pattern and more
interest and variation to the move.
