Petite Fleur by Chris Barber’s Jazz Band

Coaching Notes:

Pre-Teach: No
Focus: External
Purpose: To warm up or cool down the body

This song has three different moves that you transition between as you like, since all three moves fit throughout the song. In the break between the moves you pose with attitude and confidence.
The style is sexy, seductive, louring, confident and with attitude and a little bit of arrogance.

First move: is a step-kick. Connect people to the rhythm, and help them get creative with their kicks: kicking in different directions, walking in different directions and playing with levels.

Second move: is a toe twist. Shift your wait to one leg, and softly twist the toe on the other leg. Like your putting out a cigarette.
Relax into it, play with sexy, louring expression and change legs whenever you want.

Third move: is a 1-2-3-kick. Have them travel the room when they get the rhythm, and invite for arms and hands to dance as well as they travel.

Use groove truths and style words to keep people connected to the style and to their authentic dance. Look at the transitions and be sure to nail all the poses in the breaks. New pose every time.
