Get ready to master the cube! I'll guide you through 7 epic moves you'll memorize like your favorite dance routine. The first steps are a breeze, but hold on tight, because things get more exciting as you go. Long explanations? Pfft! Skip 'em and focus on the moves: down, up, up... let's rock that cube! The Method: Really easy to learn method for solving the cube taught in a fun and easy way even for beginners. This method consists of 7 easy movements: White Cross, Middle Layer, Yellow Cross Position, Yellow Cross Orientation, Position Corners and Final Movement. The method's great advantage is its simplicity. As an example the Final Movement only needs 4 rotations and not the usual 10 or 12 that are hard to remember. Theory: The cube has 6 faces with 6 colors and 26 pieces: Center: Pieces with 1 color located in each face's center. It tells us the cube's face's color. Corner: Pieces with 3 colors located in the cube's corners. There are 8 in total. Edge: Pieces with 2 colors located between cube corners. There are 12 in total. Tip for Success: The movement sequences are explained step by step. Each step shows which face to rotate along with a title. Try to remember these titles — with practice, the rotations will become natural.
