Twerking

Twerking is a type of dance where you shake your bum (or butt) and hips in a way that makes it look like they are bouncing up and down. It's a popular dance style that became famous from music videos and pop culture.

So, imagine that you are standing up and your feet are shoulder-width apart. Then, you bend your knees a little bit and stick your bum and hips out like you are pushing them back behind you. Then, you bounce your bum and hips up and down really fast to the music. That's twerking!

People often do this dance to songs with a strong beat, like hip-hop or pop music. It can be a fun way to dance with friends or to show off your skills in front of others.

But it's important to remember that twerking should be done in a safe and respectful way. It's not okay to make fun of others or to do anything inappropriate while twerking. Just have fun and enjoy the rhythm of the music!
