Do You Know How To Makossa Dance?

Okay, hey guys I haven't been talking alot in this forum, but I just want to know how to makossa dance. I have "Awilo Longomba's" video, and I am looking at the girls and I can do it, but I can't do it well. And I'm Nigerian, so it's a new thing in America, for the Nigerian Americans.

So I want to know how to do it, if anyone can help me. And the only reason I want to know this, is because I want to join this dance team, and it's mostly consisted of Nigerian girls, but EVERYONE, wants to join, so I want to get this right, plz answer, lol,

get at me yall

if you have lived most of your life in Nigerian, its a thing you can get used to, hell yeh i can do it, its awesome, backbreaking but awesome!

Lol, for real? But I mean, everyone says that, but I really want to be able to do it and get a step by step move, I mean, I can dance, don't get me wrong, but I really want to do this, and get it right, cuz i love dancing, i can do it a lil though,

just watch them do it

its mostly bending your knees, with your two hands and do the damn thing [am imagining it], watch the thing again,

LOl, hahahaa, hell naw, u crazy, but i mean yeah i can do it, but i want to do it perect ya know, those videos be hard, den they can do it really good,

Well I do not know how to dance that genre of music.But honestly I do enjoy watching those skilled in the dance

if u watch em closely u should be able to do it, makossa is not very different from our traditional dances, jus some moves make each kind of dance distinct, its also like dance hall reggae, jus try the basic move then as u keep doing it, u throw in more moves. don't try throwning yourself on the floor yet. all those crazy moves will fall into place the more u do it and get comfortable.

sorry Uju but yo a$$ can't be completely perfect [it'l be boring for u] but anyways, watch the vid, or get someones help,

uchenna, mhm, am sure u can dance even if its like an oyinbo man  

But Uju I am wondering why u wanna join a makoossa troupe.

I really can not dance that.But if you are willing to tutor me on that Nike,then I might take up the challenge

Watch the videos and practice.

did i just hear someone say makossa!!!! well they don't call me the "makossa queen" for no reason. would love to teach you tho. but your all the way in atlanta. am in maryland,  anyhow makossa dancing is very easy. it only involves a lot of leg movement, butt movement, hand movement,  infact it involves everything,  well watch the videos and hope for the best,

OH for real, you know how to do other dances?/
