Sharing our moves with the Pacific Dance troupe and learning some new ones from them.

Today we had the most awesome people called the Pacific Dance group, visit our class to teach us cool dance moves 

Sifa introduced the 2 teachers whose names were Nicky and Faloy. Faloy taught us how to do the Samoan Sasa in unison, using body percussion movements. We all got into the beat very quickly. It was so awesome!



Thereafter we learnt other hand moves in which we were asked us to make our eyes follow our hands. That was a great experience for most of us. Even William was able to keep to the pace. 


All of us enjoyed the hip hop that Nicky taught us. We had to make some definite and sharp explosive moves. Our arms felt very sore after a while. We had a fantastic time!



We showed them some of the dance moves we had created for our class dance. We whirled and twirled like the morning mist.

We made some interesting travel pathways across the floor as we flocked back to our positions.
They liked our graceful body movements.

We even shared our sculptures in which we touched one another lightly and froze into a statue. We all focused on an image around the class.


Look at this! I wonder what this sculpture might be? I'll let you have a guess.

Finally at the end of a tiring Monday afternoon we all assembled out on the senior courtyard and shared the awesome Samoan Sasa that we all had learnt that day. What fun we had- and it's all in a day's work!
