Looking for some moves to do in the bleachers while at a school sports event? This lesson teaches two sets of 32-counts. The moves can basically be done while standing up in the bleachers!. The amount of movement will be determined by how much space there is in the bleachers. Teach the steps and practice them. This set of movements can be done to a variety of music. Also there is a video that teaches the movements and then the class performs it to music. Teach it yourself, or use the video to teach the class.
