bust a move
Hit the floor
Bust a move means to take decisive action or make a bold attempt, especially in approaching someone romantically: You should bust a move before someone else asks her out.
The phrase also means to dance, particularly with energy or skill: The DJ dropped the beat and everyone started busting moves.
From 1980s hip-hop slang.
