To keep spirits uplifted, camaraderie flowing, minds clear and growing, we’ve added bit of fun for the aerobic portion of our warm-ups. Tai Chi Love Vet’s Park classes recently began to enjoy “line-dancing” or “group dance” fun! These dances are done with the participants in lines, but the choreography moves a quarter turn after a “set” of movements. The dance initially starts facing “North” completes itself, then turns “West” and begins again, following with “South”, “East” and completion back in the “North”. We have a Tai Chi form called the “Five Elements” which moves in the same way and can be found here in the “Our Style” section of this website.
In the following videos, you will see the “Electric Slide”, the “Macarena”, the “Hustle” and the “Backyard Sway … and mayyyybe the “Wobble”. :)))
The “Electric Slide” can be done to numerous pieces of music. Here’s a great >>>list.
At class, I promised an easy tutorial video with this lovely, clear senior lady. Here you go!
We started our “Electric Slide” learning with the following song in this YouTube video:
