Coaching Notes:

Pre-teach: Yes – chicken combo (Hands 4 like birds/ Flap wings 4/ Twist hips 4/4 claps)
Focus: External
Purpose: To have fun with an old classic

First move: Chicken combo (Hands 4 like birds/ Flap wings 4/ Twist hips 4/4 claps). Find someone to do the chicken dance with! Hands. Elbows. Tail feather. Clap. Now someone else. Hands. Elbows. Tail feathers. Clap. Now another person. You’ve got it. Try doing the chicken dance a little different each time. Maybe balance on one leg. Try doing it low. Maybe high, medium, and low.

Second move: Do si do. Find a partner and lock elbows. Walk or skip around. Change directions. Change directions again. Find a new person each time.
