Coaching Notes:

Pre-Teach: Yes
Focus: External
Purpose: connect and play with sound, raise heart beat

First Move: When beat kicks in at 0:10 song starts with Walk 1-2-3-ClapClap. Inspire your participants to clap different body parts, also clap their hands not just their body.
Walk and clap differently every time!

Second Move: At 0:28 it goes into a walk (just a short sequence when he sings “and you know how the story goes), and that walk goes into a 1-2-123 with the chorus at 0:32.
Listen to the song a couple of times to know when the transitions come in!
Transitions:
0:10 1-2-3-ClapClap
0:28 Walk, walk, walk
0:32 1-2-123
1:03 1-2-3-ClapClap
1:17 Walk, walk, walk
1:25 1-2-123
1:55 Slow, chilled out walk
2:18 Keep slow walk and add a ‘snap’
2:48 1-2-123
3:49 slow walk (and snap) until the snap fades out in the song around 4:04 and just keep the slow chilled walk
