Get the Party Started by P!nk

Coaching Notes:

Pre-Teach: No
Focus: External
Purpose: Increase heart rate and create interactions on the dance floor

First move: Walk 8 as you slowly lift your arms to the ceiling – now dance OTS like you are in the CLUB! Walk again lifting your arms – really present yourself with confidence. Let me see it in your face when you lift your arms: confidence and attitude, don’t be shy, own it! How you can you get your whole body dancing? Can you add your head? Maybe use your levels? What does it feel like if you don’t care what other think of you and just DANCE your way? Make it feel good! Is it possible to get your shoulders dancing? What about your butt? Your hips? Get the party started in your body babe! Can you lift up your arms slightly different this time? Is it possible to ooze even more confidence? Give it a try! I can’t do it for you – just try it out in your own cool way. Dance it out with the person next to you on the dance floor. You can’t get it wrong – dance it YOUR way!

Second move: Walk to the beat and put your DANCE in every single step. How can you get your arms involved? Have you tried walking in different directions? Maybe backwards? Maybe turning? Maybe walking sideways? Give yourself permission to dance your walk with some attitude and confidence. You OWN the dance floor – show it! Can you get your hair dancing? Can you add some funk and coolness to your walk? What does it look like when you dance your walk YOUR way?

Third move: Step touch to the rhythm – bend your knees slightly and get a nice bounce in there. Can your head bob with it? How can your arms dance? Can you turn with your step-touch? Can you step touch with the person next to you? Dance it out your way! You are getting the party started – show me what that looks like! Can you dance it with your whole body? Spine, rib cage, shoulders, arms, head – allow every part of your body to dance it!
