friends. You will need Two or more people A three-foot long stick and music. Step 1.
Have a friend hold the stick so that one end is at their waist and the other sticks out.
Another friend can hold the other end to make it more stable. Play music. Step 2. Stand
two feet from the stick, bend your knees, and lean backwards so your chest is facing
up. Inch your way toward the stick Don't start with the stick too low -- work your way down.
Step 3. Move under the stick while you are leaning backwards. Try not to fall down or
touch the stick. Step 4. Stand up and have the stick lowered closer to the ground. Circle
back to the starting position, and try to limbo your way under again. Start a limbo
line, with one person following the next, shimmying under the stick. Step 5. Continue
lowering the stick and going under it again until you fall down. Did you know Chubby Checker's
