Re: [Callers] Brain Dead - Need Suggestions

I'd think if you could get them to do "Lucky Seven" and count the progression aloud (1 .. 2.. 3 ..) so that they're hearing 2 beat or 4 beat chunks on the pull by, you'd be exceeding the request. -- Alan ________________________________ From: Callers &lt;callers-bounces(a)lists.sharedweight.net&gt; on behalf of Linda S.

Been hired to lead a dance for a music school -- ages 5 and up to teens and their parents and my contact asked if I could lead "dances that encourage really paying attention to beat counts….throw in some music education in addition to fun." So I'll do my standard ONS dances for this group to recorded music that has very good beat counts and distinct phrasing. That's not the problem. The problem is "throw in some music education." I don't need a dissertation, just bits and pieces. The dance is only 1-1/2 hours long followed by ice cream. I've got a job that keeps me pretty busy and am training for a new job that's taking up a lot of my time and I just can't think anymore. Any suggestions? -- Looking forward, Linda S.
