Hip Hop

                       Hip Hop

 Hey Bloggers. Welcome back. In our school each term we have different sport or activity. We participate in the activity for about 5 weeks. This Term we did Hip Hop. We had Hip Hop every Wednesday after lunch. Our Hip Hop teacher's name was Miss Millie. We start off with the warm up. You would think our warm up would be just like any other warm up but no. For our warm up we stand in a circle and Miss Millie starts. Miss Millie can do a dance move or a stretch. Once she has done hers she would choose which way the circle would go, clockwise or anticlockwise. Then the person next to Miss Millie would do the same they would choose either a dance move or a stretch and so on. 

For the first 3 weeks we did a very fun activity after the warm up. We were put into groups of 6 and they would be the people who were standing beside you in the circle warm up. Then you and your group would make a line and there would be one leader. As soon as Miss Millie starts the music the leader of the  group has to start doing a dance move and walk around the room. The others who are behind the leader would copy the leader and follow her or him around the room. and then when the music stops the person who is behind the leader would switch and become the next leader and the first leader would go to the back. We then learnt some new Hip Hop moves. 

In our fourth week we did something a little bit more fun. We were told to get into groups of three. I was with my friends Hosanna and Brittany. Our job was to use our body and make a rhythmic sound. We came up with something brilliant. We stood in a triangle. At first Hosanna was the point of the triangle and she can do any kind of sound pattern she wanted to do. She would do it once then I would do it with her the  second time and then Brittany would join her the third time. Then we would switch. I would be the next point of the triangle. We would repeat the way we have been doing the things and then at the end Hosanna and Brittany would stand on either side of me and point to me sitting on the ground and  then I would do a cool sound pattern that I learnt a long time ago. Then we would perform in front of all of the people in our class and they would do the same. 

Due to our busy term, we unfortunately missed about 3 sessions of Hip Hop. In our second to last week of Hip Hop we did something super duper fun. We had to be in pairs or groups of 3. I was with Brittany. We had learned a dance that day, a sitting one. Then in our groups/ pairs we had to make up our dance for the rest of the song. By the time we finished doing our steps it was time for the class to end so our Hip Hop teacher said that next week we can perform these dances for everybody. Since the week after that was our last week at Hip Hop and school we had extra fun. We performed our dances after a quick practice then danced on the other songs that we had learned before. Hip Hop was a great experience for me. I loved it a lot. Well Thank you for reading. Blog You later.

  1. Hip Hop sounds fun. I hope you continue doing Hip Hop even if the classes are not there. I am sure you can come up with your own moves and share it with your friends.
