This article is about the song by Katy Perry. You may be looking for the song from Teen Beach 2 with a similar name.

"This Is How We Do" by Katy Perry is featured on Just Dance 2016, Just Dance Now, and Just Dance Unlimited.

Appearance of the Dancers

All four dancers are teenage girls who are cheerleaders. They all have sapphire blue hair and wear pink and orange cheerleader dresses, long orange socks with pink stripes, and white shoes. They all also hold large pom poms, one pink (which function as the gloves for all 4 of them) and one orange each. Each girl has a different hairstyle to distinguish them; P1 has short hair supported by a red ribbon, P2 has a long ponytail, P3 has braided hair, and P4 has her hair in a bun. P3’s dress is a one-piece, while the other girls’ outfits are two-pieces.

Background

As VƩronique stated in the Behind-the-Track interview, the background was inspired by the geometric shapes and lines from sports fields and stadiums. It features many geometrical shapes, lines and colors with placements and animations that make it look like a sport field.

Mashup

This Is How We Do has a Mashup that can be unlocked and played through the Just Dance Unlimited service starting in December 2015. The Mashup does not have a theme.

[GM#] - indicates the occurrence of a Gold Move; the pound sign indicates the chronological appearance of the Gold Move in the Mashup.

Trivia

General

Classic

  • This Is How We Do is the first routine for a song by Katy Perry to be performed by a Dance Crew.
  • This Is How We Do is the last known routine performed by Stessy Emelie.
  • Ievan Polkka and This Is How We Do are the second and third Classic routines in the series to include an object in the coach’s hand (in this case, pom-poms). They are preceded by Professor Pumplestickle.
  • The coaches’ design is inspired from the cheerleaders in the music video for the song.
  • When all players raise their legs, their gold socks glitch and turn to white. After they put their leg down, the color fades back to normal.
  • Near the ending, there is one pictogram that erroneously switches P3 and P4s’ colors.
  • In the Autodance servers, and early version of the routine can be found. The background has much less animations and differently-designed items, and the coaches have an entirely different color scheme consisting of black hair, fuchsia and red pom-poms and navy blue suits.
    • Another early version that is closer to the final one can be found, too. The background has more animations, and the coaches now have purple hair, orange and fuchsia pom-poms and light blue suits.
  • In the preview thumbnail, the coaches are seen with their outlines fading at their feet, like most Just Dance coaches; however, in the actual gameplay, the outline does not fade.
  • P1’s avatar’s hair is lighter on 7th-generation consoles than on her 8th-generation counterparts.
