Coaching Notes:

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

First move: Step and Sit. Step and sit as if you are sitting on a dining room chair, in a very sensual way!
Add your arms when you sit.
Stick your butt out and strike a little pose with it.
Now start to travel the room with your step and sit. Add a little flirt and sensuality in your own unique way. Just explore that feeling – remember you can’t get it wrong!
Can you move your shoulders?
How can you dance this move?
Allow yourself to be alluring and a little seductive.
For leg strength, sit lower.
How can you add your hands and arms to your dance?
Have you tried moving backwards yet?
Can you get your head involved?
Be brave enough to add your face too – show me a little Christmas flirtatiousness – in a way that feels good to you.

Second move: 1-2-3-pose. Walk 1-2-3-pose.
Make your poses very graceful and decorative. Stick body parts out. Add your shoulders.
Can you pose differently every time?
You can also pose with other people.
Use your hands. Let your hands be soft and elegant and let them dance too.
Can you walk sideways?
Have you tried turning?
Can you dance as you walk?
What happens in your face when you pose?
Feel free to sing along!
