Hey I'm new to these forums but it seems like a pretty cool place. Anyways here's my video of me dancing/cwalking(clown walk). Tell me what you think and if you've got any tips. Subscribe if you'd like too.

I was trying out a different style so it was kind of freestyle. But yeah tell me what you think, it's got some sketchy parts but yeah here it is:

Looks good, man! You've got a lot of nice ideas integrated in there, and you've got the speed down too. Some comments I'd give ya: (just suggestions, it's the way I'd do it)

Stay grounded a little more - you've got a lot of movement going on, but if you can iso the parts of your body that aren't moving, then it'll make the other stuff a lot bigger and look a lot cleaner. I'd watch out especially when you're focusing on one foot that the other foot doesn't wiggle, cause that really takes away from it. In general, just look for more control in your body (which you can do by tensing your muscles, but don't clench them otherwise you'll get cramps)

Your arm wave at the end was a little sloppy. Try breaking it down a little more. I'll put up an arm wave tutorial during spring break so you can check it out.

Make sure when you do your turn that your other leg stays put, cause it was moving out a bit during the turn, and made it look a little messy.

Play with the music a little more. C-walking is made really cool when it matches what's going on in the music, and the best dancers can really mix up their moves to the beats, vocals, and instrumentals. For RnB stuff, check this out. It's not c-walking, but just pay attention to the way he uses the music with his dancing to make it really spectacular.

Hope that helps!
