Windmill (dance move)

Windmill (dance move)

The windmill is a dance move where the dancer spins in place with hair loose. By doing this, the dancer's hair fans outwards, creating a circle in the air. When done by two or more members of a band in synch, it adds a very dramatic effect to the band's stageshow.

How To Do The Windmill

The windmill is done by first doing a one-handed turtle freeze, then collapsing your hand supporting your body forwards then pushing your other hand off the ground to turn. You then turn your whole body around and then spin on your shoulders with forward momentum to carry you or re entering the turtle freeze and continuing.
