Coaching Notes:

Pre-Teach: No
Focus: external
Purpose: To connect to tribal style and unite the group as one tribe.

First move: The first move is a snap on the beat. Invite everyone to move it around the room.

Second move: The second move is a walk-walk-bounce-bounce. The bounce is different every time.
Remind everyone to keep the tribal/funky style while they play with creative options.

Third move: The third move is a wide march. Take your feet wide, march on the beat and pick your knees up. Invite everyone to
come in close and face the same way.
Take 4X8 counts to set it up then ask everyone to change direction every 8 counts (like the Macarena). Do this twice through.
The second time it happens is only once through.
