Slow the tutorial video on this page to 70–75% speed in YouTube's settings and drill one 8-count at a time. Once each section feels automatic, chain two together, then run the whole dance to music.

A line dance is a choreographed sequence danced solo in rows. Everyone does the same steps facing the same way, no partner needed. The Levitating repeats the same 80-count sequence, turning to face a new wall each time through. Once the counts click, you can join in the moment the song comes on.
