Workshop Structure
1) Warm-Up Games
Quick, fun dance starters — rhythm and freeze games, call-and-response steps, and body-isolation drills. These build coordination, musicality, and confidence while setting a positive, high-energy tone.
2) Main Session
Skill stations and creative tasks focused on footwork patterns, turns and jumps, levels and dynamics, and simple choreography building. Partner and small-group work develops technique, teamwork, and performance skills so every pupil is included and engaged.
3) Cool Down
Gentle stretches and breathing to recover along to relaxing music. Pupils leave calm, injury-aware, and ready to build on today’s dance sequence next time.
“Teachers felt inspired by the new games and ideas — children’s laughter echoed around the school. A fantastic experience!”
