What is a finger tut?!

Tutting has a variety of other names such as: Finger fitness, finger dance, finger tut, or digits

The term Tutting is derived from the name of the Egyptian pharaoh Tutankhamun. Tutting is performed with attention to the musics' rhythm by altering the position of the body and limbs in a synchronized, robotic manner.

Tutting is essentially a form of popping, with lots of hand flows, box shapes, and dynamic transformations. It's an extremely fun dance to do, though it does take a lot of practice.



It has been gaining popularity with young groups and performers posting their videos on youtube and social media.

Many of these people who post their videos onto youtube know this famous dancer as "JayFunk" Which is the name he goes by on his youtube videos. He has recently been apart of a recent Samsung galaxy cell phone commercial simply because of his ability to finger tut.
