If you have been keeping up so far you should be able to
give a really basic light show but none the less a light show! So now, let’s talk
about styles. Every Glover has their own style and some even manage to make their
own moves. You have to remember a key fact when gloveing, do not copy a style
and do what they do. If you see a cool move try to add your own flare to it
make it unique. I try to free style most light shows I give because I find it
more fun that way and every once in a while I figure out a new trick. I highly
suggest you start by giving a lightshow to a mirror for practice.

Tutting
I hope
that the finger roles are coming along nicely and you’re ready to learn a new
move! This time I’m going to explain what tutting is. Tutting is when you use
your arms, hands, and fingers to make shapes (usually 90 degree angles). This
took me a long time to learn and I’m still practicing it so don’t be
discouraged if its extra difficult with practice you can learn how to. I suggest that you practice stretching your
wrists so they can bend more (this video will explain how - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nXnfZ0WjvOg).
But besides that I have another video for basic tuts. It’s the same video I
used and its pretty helpful - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-9N1UhWxU8s.
best of luck!
Finger Rolls
If you start watching gloving videos then you can see that
it seems a tad bit overwhelming at first but I’m going to try to help you learn
some of the basics for now. In my personal opinion I think that the most
essential move any Glover should know is how to do a finger role. A lot of the
harder moves that you learn will revolve around this simple trick so it’s
pretty wise to learn how to do it early. Before you practice take a minute to
stretch out your fingers. This video will help teach you how -
After I
learned how to do this I started to work on tutting which I will go over in the
next post. For most people you won’t be able to do this first try so you have
to practice often! It’s really easy to practice so if you’re ever just bored
and have nothing better to do try doing a couple finer roles and soon you’ll
have it down!
What it is
Today I am going to explain the different parts of gloveing
and why in fact people glove. Gloveing was born when someone at a rave one day
put led lights on his fingertips and wore white gloves so it looked as if his
fingertips were glowing. From then people began to make incorporate tutting
which is a form of dancing with your hands and arms and didgets which incase
you don’t remember revolves around your fingers. After time light shows started
happening which is gloveing with your hands close to there face so they can
only see the lights. People all over the world started comeing up with crazy
new moves. There are someplaces that will hold tournaments for it but I prefer
just to do it for fun. If you plan on getting into this then you will need some
motivation to keep you going because this can be difficult to learn.
Welcome!
Hello to everyone who is reading this. My goal is to try to
explain what 'gloveing' is and how people learn to do this crazy new dance. For
those of you who are already interested in learning im going to try and help
you learn to get better and with my past experience encourage you to try new
moves and styles. To start off Gloveing is a type of dance that revolves mostly
around your fingers. Now if this is your first time reading about this then
just using your fingers doesn’t seem that impressive or entertaining. This
would be the case but gloveing requires a special set of LED lights and gloves,
I will get into more detail about that later.
As a example of what Gloveing is please watch this video -
