Charlotte Posey teaches an advanced jazz funk combo to "Maneater" by Nelly Furtado in this high-energy class with assistant Presley Baird. Students learn a plié slice-down with a head-dropping passé, chest rolls with hand placements on the mouth, a slow three-count arm rise into a foot bring-in, a stepping back kick with jazz-hand holds, flicks to the back with knee outs, a hand-around-head swoop, a shake-up rock-head bevel with an elbow crack, step-out turn work with hip pokes, a marionette-doll snake into four booty shakes, a slinky melt transition, a force-arch chainé into passé, oblique twist work with wrist-led clap-behind-back sequences, circle accents into a house-jack kick with head whips and elbow crosses, a breathy throw with arm cross, and a right-left groove finale. Charlotte emphasizes flow between moves, opposition, strong line placement, and the contrast between delicate hand details and sharp accents, breaking every section down with clear verbal cues before connecting it all with a slow full review, a mark through at tempo, mark with music, and full-out run. Ideal for advanced dancers looking to sharpen hip hop technique with Y2K attitude, technical placements, and performance quality.
