Dance Routine

It has been my responsibility to choreograph the dance routine for the middle section of the music video, and I constructed it with the help of two inspirational music videos (Christina Aguilera 'Ain't No Other Man' and West Side Story 'America').

  • Up and down up and down
  • Step forward right, twist back on left , shake bum 3&4
  • Twist with bum round to right diagonalShake shoulders, push left down first
  • Forward and back forward and back with left foot and punchy arms
  • Salsa step forward and back, dropping onto right foot
  • Walk (right) walk (left), place legs out one at a time (right leg first)Do the swishy hair thing, clockwise directionPositions 6, 7, Goli 8
  • Push down with right hand knees facing left, pull up with the left hand, knees facing right (slow)
  • Gesturing hands as walking backwards (slow)
  • Arms with beat, Goli spins (we clap)Arms with beat, Goli wiggles (we clap)
  • Arms with beat, Goli does Shakira belly (we clap)
