* More specific explanation for hip bumps: hip action comes from weight transfers and from bending the other leg. Transfer weight to a straight right leg at the same time bending left knee, then straighten left knee transferring weight towards the middle on &-count and bend left knee again on count 2 transferring full weight on right leg. Then do the same thing, but with opposite legs on counts 3&4. Looks even better, when you angle your body slightly to the same diagonal, as you are bending your leg.
Have fun dancing!
