Coaching Notes:

Pre-Teach: No
Focus: External
Purpose: To inspire people to sing

First move: Walk to the beat: walk, walk, walk, walk. This song is all about grooving our voice – so I want you to sing along, loud and proud, on the nah-neh-nah. Start to travel the room as you explore walking sideways, backwards and turning too. This song is cool, chill, carefree, relaxed and folksy – so pick up your elbows and let your arms move too. Sing it! Give yourself permission to groove your voice! It feels soooooo good! Sing as loud as you want! Once in a while cross over as you walk – just try it out – to get that folksy dance feeling into your body. Maybe you wanna sing it to the people you pass? Put a smile on your face and enjoy the vibration in your chest as you sing – you can’t get it wrong – sing it and make yourself feel good!

Second move: Slow swing your partner. Lock elbows with the person next to you and do a slow and chilled swing-your-partner. Change directions. Find a new partner and take a nice and relaxed elbow-swing with them.
