Coaching Notes:

Pre-Teach: Yes (Walk-8 / Step-Touch-4)
Focus: External
Purpose: To warm up the body and greet one another in a good mood

First move: Clap OTS. Start out with a clap. Add your feet if you want. Maybe a step touch, but whatever works for you. Now take those claps all around your body. Clap in a new place every time. That’s it. Move through your space. A little funky. Maybe a little high five with someone.
Second move: Happy-Walk-Turn-Around. Show me a happy walk. Now turn around. You can try turning slow just to practice.
Third move: Walk-8 / Step-Touch-4. Let’s see you walk. Now step-touch. Walk to someone new. Step touch where you are. Walk to someone new. Now step touch.
Fourth move: Walk 8 / Dance 8. Let’s see how you dance it out. Your way. Let’s see your style as you walk. Dance it your way. Let’s see it. Let’s see your different styles as you dance. Make it as crazy as you want.

*Be sure to pre-teach moves for young children (4-6 yr olds)
