Sonnentanz (feat. Will Heard) [Sun Don’t Shine] by Klangkarussell

Coaching Notes:

Pre-Teach: Yes, the connecting point
Focus: External
Purpose: To warm up the body and create interaction on the dancefloor

This is a great uplifting, cool and funky song with a cute connector part.

Pre-Teach: ‘When I yell freeze in the song I want you all to hold your spot, lift up one arm and point around the room to everybody here.
He sings the sun don’t shine without you, so please sing along if you know the song, as you point to your fellow groovers. Change arms and point again as you reach out and point to everybody, cool back-up singer-style!’.
First move: Slow walk. Connect them to a slow, chilled-out, confident walk. Coach for directional changes and to add hands and arms to express the dance and song.

Second move: is a dancewalk. It’s funky, cool, confident and energetic. Coach for full use of space, lots of turning and get people dancing full body involved.

Third move: is a step-clap. Connect people to the sound of the clap, and have them travel the room as they explore clapping in places every single time, building the energy for the chorus.

Fourth move: Simply yell out ‘freeze’ – and have people pointing around the room to everybody, and encourage them to sing along.
Change arms and glide your arm the other way around the room, on the second time he sings ‘without you’.
