0.5x speed on YouTube is my best friend and my worst enemy.

Being a self-taught 16-year-old trainee means I don’t have a teacher to break down the steps for me. So my daily routine involves setting YouTube to 0.5x speed and staring at the dance practice video until my eyes bleed.

The hardest part isn't the footwork—it's the micro-movements. The way they shift their weight or tilt their head on count 4. When I do it at normal speed, it looks like I’m glitching. 😭 How many times do u guys rewatch a single 3-second clip before u actually get it into your muscle memory? I’m currently at 47 views for one chorus loop.
