Singing & Choreography Guidance
Choreography guidance:
Hey choreographers!
Below are the songs you’ll be working with. As you create your routines, please keep them kid friendly: movements should be easy to learn, simple to remember, and not overly complex. Feel free to reuse and repeat sections of choreography where it makes sense, repetition is great for memory, just keep it balanced so it doesn’t feel monotonous. Also the kids love using body prop to create freeze frames/mini scenes during the dance so if it's a long song feel free to use up time getting the kids to create something relevant to the song. E.g. in somewhere over the rainbow you could have them create a rainbow in a big group / mini groups. Be creative! Do anything you like!
Have a look at the links below with previous dances to get a sense of what the kids are capable of and the overall vibe we’re aiming for.
Deadline for all dances: Friday 17th April.
