Coaching Notes:

Pre-Teach: Yes, the walk and point, and the pose 3 times and pause.
Focus: External
Purpose: To create connections on the dancefloor and explore using the voice as part of the dance

Pre-Teach: ’When they sing ’you make me feel like dancing’ point to someone in the room, and then boogie OTS.
Try it with me: dance walk and point, now dance on the spot in your own delicious style.
Then there will be three poses and a pause, so try that with me: pose-pose-pose and hold it, yes and try to make the pose a new one
every single time!
Let’s try one more time: pose-pose-pose and hold’.

First move: Is a dance walk. It’s light, confident, happy, chilled out and a bit funky as well.
Have them use the room groove style: using directions, levels and turning.

Second move: Walk-and-point-dance-OTS-for-2. Have them pointing at each other as they sing, and when they dance OTS have
invite them to do it with their personality and flavor. Different ever time.
Third move: Pose 3 times and pause. Coach for new poses every time, using levels and sticking out body parts.
