Coaching Notes:

Pre-teach: No
Focus: External
Purpose: To explore being funky and experiencing fun interactions.

First move: slow-slow-quick-quick-quick-quick (SSQQQQ): Go slow, slow then walk 1234. Accent an arm movement on the slows.
Add style and confidence. Show me how you dance it.
Just keep repeating this rhythm over and over. But add your style and drama. Explore the whole space, all your directions.
Can you do something different with your arms on each slow?

Second Move: Poses: Give me a dramatic pose and then bring it in towards the body with yearning. Repeat 2 more times than a little
dance OTS. Show me your drama here. You’re yearning in your expression. Show me! You got this!
Do it your way, you can’t get it wrong, just show me the drama.
