Coaching Notes:

Pre-Teach: No
Focus: Internal
Purpose: Connection to self, expression and emotion

This whole song is one rhythm, with a brief OTS pause. It’s very soft, internal, and expressive. A very personal song.

First move: Side-side-123. On the side-side, accent something in the arms and body. Follow the music, and allow the intensity and expression of the movement to build with the music.
Use all directions and the whole space.

Second Move: Freeze and then a slow walk backwards. Gentle and soft. Take your gaze to the floor and slowly walk backwards. Easy and slow. Ask them to listen to the music and dance with it when it transitions back to the first move.

Transitions:
0:00 Side-side-123
3:08 Slow walk backwards
3:30 Side-side-123
