Show Me How You Burlesque by Christina Aguilara

Coaching Notes:

Pre-teach: Yes. Get It Up Combo.
Focus: External
Purpose: To get people out of their shells and build confidence

First Move: Snap. Strike a confident sassy pose and snap like you are too hot to handle. Keep it simple at first, then start to take that snap all around your body. When you’re ready, walk or travel with it. How many different ways can you go? Let’s see some attitude and sassy confidence. Can you explore your levels and directions? Add your style and personality. Swanky and sassy baby. Show me what you got.

Second Move: Hey Combo. Twist with attitude then snap. Do it again, add your personality. Keep it sassy and confident. (these are short segments so not a lot of time to explore so focus on just cueing it well, for them to follow)

Third Move: Get It Up Combination (Arms Up, Arms Up 3x, Twist). Show me lots of sass. Get it up get it up. Lots of energy. That’s it. Throw it high. Whatever you do, make it feel good. Can you change your direction each time? Do it your way.

Fourth Move: Sing Along. “OK Girls”…Everyone come together. “Hey!” Now you sing it! “Hey!” Now you sing it! This is a call and response. Just follow the music but encourage them to really get into… come on, show me your drama and confidence. Be dramatic with your body when you sing.
