[MUSIC PLAYING] Hi. My name is Rujeko Dumbutshena. I am from Zimbabwe,
which is in Africa. And this is– Farai Malianga. I'm also from Zimbabwe,
which is in Africa. And we have our students here
that will be learning with you. Here we go. The idea here is teaching
you some African dance steps. Except we're going to
have the idea of a clock. We all need to learn
how to use the clock. And numbers and counting
our importance in dance. Direction is important in dance,
and so all of those things we'll learn today. Here we go.
So 12 and we're
going to go using our right foot to step to 12 and
back, 12 and back, 12 and back, 12. We're going to do 3 with our
right and back, 3 and back, 3 and back, 3. 6, 6 with our right, 6 back,
6 and back, 6 and back, 6. Now we're going to
switch to our left. Start our bounce. Left to 12:00, left to 12, left

to go 12 and 6, 12. 12, 6, 12, 6. 12, 6, 12. Do we do double time? That's not double time. Forget the double time part. Here we go, 12 and 6. 12, 6, 12, 6, 12, 6, 12, 6. Now we're going to go 3 and 9.
