Ciganka Medley by Shantel & Bucovina Club Orkestar (KIDS)

Coaching Notes:

I like to pre-teach these moves to get the kids into character. Sometimes I ask for a volunteer and ask them to show me a proud, strong and slightly arrogant pose. This helps get them into the essence. Then I say we will start with these poses then do straight leg kicks but the challenge is to keep up with the music as it continually gets faster. Get them to try it with you.
The straight leg kicks goes into high knee runs. I started to cue “knees so high like you have fire under your feet.” You’ll hear it in the music at 0:45 seconds, that’s when I usually start cueing high knees. Coach them to be ridiculous and silly!! It is so much fun!!
Around 0:51 seconds I get them to swing a partner.
This easy frame repeats 3 times.
At the end of the song around 3:32 I get them to swing a partner and keep changing partners until the end of the song.
This is a really awesome high energy song to do with ages 7+.
I usually have it as my second song to get them connecting with each other and energized!
