HECTOR: What's up, guys?
How ya doing?
We are here to teach you how to slide and drop.
I'm Hector.
This is Rita.
This is Judy.
And what we're going to do is we're going to break down
moves of the "Slide and Drop" to make it clear so we can all
slide and drop together.
JESSICA: You do the slide and drop, slide and
drop, slide and drop.
Do the slide and drop.
HECTOR: So let's get it started.
The first part of the slide and drop is
going to be the slide.
OK, you're going to start on your left foot, and you're
going to push forward.
Watch it again.
It goes like this.
All right.
Now, the second part is the drop.
What you're going to do is you're going to drop down to
your left foot, and bring your right arm forward and your
left arm back as if you're going to run real fast.
So it's going to look like this-- let's try it together.
We go.
And--
drop.
Now, let's put those two moves together.
Five, six, seven, eight-- slide and drop.
One more time.
Here we go.
And five, six, seven, eight-- slide and drop.
All right.
I think we've got that part.
Now, we're going to move on to the next.
So what you're going to do is you're going to act as if
there's a wall right next to you.
OK?
And you're going to push off that wall and slide onto your
right foot.
All right.
Let's just do that push real quick.
And--
push.
Now, after you push, you're going to drop down and slap
your thighs.
OK?
You're going to bring your hands up to your right as if
you're saying stop.
So it's going to look this.
Let's put that together.
And--
push, slap, drop.
One more time, here we go.
And--
push, slap, drop.
You're going to jump three times on your left leg.
So it's going to go like this.
One, two, three.
So you're going to bring your hands up as if you're having a
great time at a party, slapping
five with your friends.
OK?
Jump three times, and bring the feet together, and your
hands down.
So let's do that together.
OK?
Here we go.
And--
jump, jump, jump.
Bring them down.
After that, you're going to slide right, and sweep with
your left hand and point down.
Bring your left leg behind your right leg.
OK?
Let's just do that second slide.
So it's going to look like this.
We're down here, right?
And--
slide, point.
Let's do it from the jump.
All right.
We're going to do the jumps into that slide.
So here we go.
Ready?
Five, six, seven, eight-- jump, jump, jump.
Slide, point.
Great.
Let's try that all with music.
We'll do everything, from the slides to the jumps-- the
whole nine.
[MUSIC PLAYING]
HECTOR: Here we go.
Here we go, now.
Slide, drop.
[INAUDIBLE], jump, jump, jump.
Slide, point.
Let's do it again.
Here we go.
Ready?
One more time.
Join us, OK?
Here we go.
And five, six, five, six, seven, eight-- slide, drop.
Push, drop.
Jump, jump, jump.
Slide, point.
You looked great.
That was great.
Thank you, thank you.
Let's move on to the next part, OK?
So now we're doing here after the point, after the first
slide and drop.
You're going to have your right leg forward and your
hands above.
Now, as if you've got a string attached to your knee, you're
going to lift it up twice.
So it's going to go-- boom, boom.
And when you bring it up, you're going to
drop a little bit.
OK, add a little flavor to it.
So let's try that quick drop.
So right leg forward, hands up.
Here we go.
Ready?
And--
up, up.
Great.
After that you're going to slide, and slide back.
OK.
So you're just going to slide forward and slide back.
Right here you're going to have a little
hopscotch move, OK?
So it's going to go right leg forward, right leg to the
side, and right leg back.
Turn, and then a quick jump back.
I know that's a little longer but let's try it
all together, OK?
Let's do it from the hands.
All right?
Five, six, five, six, seven, eight-- hands, hands, slide,
slide, hopscotch move, turn, and step.
Let's try that with music.
I think you're ready.
I can see you're ready.
Let's do it.
[MUSIC PLAYING]
HECTOR: Here we go.
And we're ready.
So five, six, five, six, seven, eight-- up, up, slide,
slide, hopscotch move, turn, and step.
One more time-- let's do it one more time.
Here we go.
Five, six-- hands up-- seven, and eight-- and up, up, slide,
slide, hopscotch, part turn, and step.
All right.
So now we're going to put it all together.
Now, remember, after the first time you do the whole slide
and drop, you're going to do the whole thing
from the other side.
OK, so we're going to try it with some music.
You ready?
RITA: Yep.
HECTOR: All right.
You ready?
JUDY: Yep.
HECTOR: Let's go.
[MUSIC PLAYING]
HECTOR: Game time.
Here we go.
You ready--
I know you're ready.
And--
here we go.
Five, six, seven, eight-- and slide, drop, push, drop, boom,
boom, boom, and slide, drop.
Up, up, step, step, hopscotch, part turn, and there we go.
Slide, drop, push, drop, jump, jump, jump, slide, drop.
You looked great.
I'm telling you you looked good.
I'm proud of you.
Keep watching the Electric Company.
I'm Hector.
I'll see you soon.
[MUSIC PLAYING]
JESSICA: Do the slide and drop.
Chilling with your friends, play a little ball, shopping
with your folks over at the mall.
Do the slide and drop, slide and drop, slide and drop.
You do the slide and drop.
