Transfer from subdomain to new account?

[<h1>]

Hi There
I was wondering if there is any easy way to transfer files from a subdomain which is on my root account, to a new account I created on the same server?
In theory, i wish to copy files on the server from one folder to another.
I have reviewed "transferring accounts", which is basically what I want to achieve, but I'm not transfering the whole account, just files from a subdomain on the account.
Is this at all possible using WHM and root access?
Thank you for your time and suggestions.
Richard

from ssh

mv /home/oldusername/public_html/some_foldername /home/newusername/public_html/folder

chown -R newusername.newusername /home/newusername/public_html/folder



something like that
