I'll definitely take a look at those. My friend and I decided on Minimanimo mainly because it was cute and had clear and easy-to-remember dance steps. Of course, my friend's got Gee memorized already, so I'm still going to be the inexperienced one. However, the cure for inexperience is to actually do something, right? ^^ So here goes.

Haha! I see that pun! :P I do improv swordplay and Ki Aikido, so unless it's a slow dance or one with a lot of mathematical footwork (like NU'EST's "Hello"), there's really nothing for me to draw on. However, I'm determined to learn at least one KPop dance all the way through.

LOL! Yeah, I can get pretty stiff too, but mostly because I often start thinking, "What do I look like right now?" and get worried. In Scottish dance, it was very simple: Keep your back straight, your toes pointed, don't forget the clearly-defined steps and keep your eyes on your partner. In Israli dance, it was just a matter of staying in formation and doing what everybody else was doing.

LOL Yeah, that would be a big plus! I guess I'm the type that could learn anything, as long as I have a teacher. I was my instructor's favorite in Scottish country dance class, and I was the youngest in an Israeli folk dance class. I've also done a little bit of interpretive, but it was closely tied to Israeli dance. I've also learned to mimic a number of moves from Bollywood, but I have yet to learn a full dance routine in a long, long time.

That's sad! It's the pits when you've got this great plan going and then it finally goes nowhere. That's like when I tried to get my high school classmates (in a homeschool group) to do an English version of Rock Musical Bleach. It fell apart because most of the kids who volunteered didn't ask their parents first to make sure they'd be able to get a ride to practice. Nobody stepped up to play Rukia, so I got stuck in the part, we didn't have a Renji or Tousen, and most of the cast kept changing their minds about whether or not they were actually interested enough to bother.

"if you work hard and all day possible to learn moves in a day, but the dance won't look perfect. I think it'd best utilized to learn upper body movement and hands by dancing while you drive LOL that's how I did Wedding dress." Nice! I do that a lot when I'm on the porch swing just listening to music by myself, so it should have been obvious for me to do the same with Minimanimo (something I'm actually trying to learn, LOL, as opposed to every other song I know). I sadly don't have a car (That's my mother's car in my profile picture). By the way, did you do any cover videos with those dances, or were they just learned for fun?

Spring Break only lasts one week, and if I could set aside one day, Thursday's the one I'd bank on. It's the one day of the week that just seems to be invisible to most of the people on my campus. (It was actually a pretty lame joke on my part. I read too much British satire. >,>")

LOL! I doubt it. College and Uni professors seem to be of the opinion that Spring Break means their week off, not ours, so I've still got one or two assignments to get done. Then I should probably start on making my cosplay jacket (AKA completely ripping apart a perfectly good jacket and putting it back together again)... Do you think maybe I could learn it on Thursday? XD

Much appreciated! I'll show this video to my friend and see if we can figure out the individual steps. Now that we've got a full visual, it hopefully won't be as difficult. Of course, with our Gov II teacher being such a tyrant, it's a wonder we've even figured out the first four lines of the chorus... LOL But that's what Spring Break is for, right?
