Coaching Notes:

Pre-Teach: Yes – The Macarena

Focus: External

Purpose: To get down and dirty and gritty

Pre-Teach: Ok everybody we are going to do the Macarena, if you don’t know it, let’s quickly practice. Okay, stand, legs apart, we go hand hand, over over, head head, wrap wrap, then stick your butt back, drop down and touch your body on the way up. Do it with me and let’s try it together. But show me how gritty and dirty you can be with it.

First move: Macarena – There is a little intro music, set them up for the Macarena, Okay, here we go, to the music, hand hand, over over, head head, wrap wrap, stick it out and go down and up. Awesome!! Let’s do it again, but see if you can dance it and put your own style into it. Encourage them to dance it differently each time they do the macarena. Work it! Show me how you do the Macarena. Change your direction each time.

Second move: 1-2 bounce it down – Now walk 1-2, and bounce it down, lots of attitude. Show me how you tell a story with your arms. Bend your knees and give me a hip-hop feel. Can you change your direction? Do it your way. Put your style into it. Get down and dirty.
