Hey, Macarena!! The Macarena is very simple to dance: left, right, left, right, wiggle the hips. Spice it up a bit by giving the class things to hold in their hands such as lummi sticks or scarves. Give them anything that will not be too much of a distraction. Perhaps half the class holds one item, and the other half holds something different. Use your creativity.
