The Git Up

Went viral for a reason. Genuinely easy and genuinely fun.

"THE GIT UP" DANCE · Blanco Brown (BEGINNER DANCE TUTORIAL)…

We did not make this video — we found the clearest one and linked it. There is no single official version of most line dances, so we are filming the version taught on West Michigan floors with local instructors. Teach it here?

Why this one is in the library

2019 viral hit; 8+ versions including one co-credited to Blanco Brown.

The cheat sheet

What you are walking into

Viral, cheerful, and built for people who have never danced. It practically calls itself.

What catches people out

It has more sections than it first appears, and they do not all repeat evenly.

How to get through it

Learn the chorus section first. It comes around most often and gets you through the majority of the song.

Moves it leans on

Grapevine Kick Ball Change Hip Bump

These are ours, written for someone who has not danced it yet — not a step sheet. For exact counts, see the choreographer's sheet linked above, or come to a night and let someone teach you.

Go dance this week

We do not claim to know which night plays which song. What we do know is where country dancing happens — here are three of the region's nights, and the calendar has the rest.
