The CTY Shuffle refers to a dance that originated at CTY. The CTY shuffle was in fact created by the History of Disease TA Leandre Johns in 02.1 after he noted the students lack of knowledge about a lot of dances.

It is danced to the song Icecream, by Lou Bega. The dance moves are as follows:

After the initial dialog/instrumental section ends, begin.

Run forward (2 beats)
Run backward (2 beats)
Right, left, right, left (1 beat each; turn and lean to the side, don't move feet)
Slide right (2 beats)
Slide left (2 beats)
(To the right) Step, step, step, step (1 beat each; don't move, just step)
(To the left) Step, step, step, step (1 beat each; again, don't move, just step)
Freestyle (4 beats; turn 90 degrees to the left by the end)
Step back, back, back, back (1 beat each)

Then repeat.

During the CTY Shuffle, a lot of beatless people step up to dance, and are stepped on during the running section. Nobody gets hurt at all, but it is fun to watch the confused looking squirrels (sorry, confused looking squirrels).
