Sonia's "Stupid Cupid" Warm-up
This is a
Warmup pattern from
www.turnstep.com.
(pattern 11029)
This goes great with Medusa's "Stupid Cupid" Valentine
Mix. I plan to use this in classes other than 2/14. Hope you
like it too!
- Box Clap (8)*
- 2 Slow shoulders, right forward/back, left forward/back (4)
- 4 Quick alternate shoulders as above (4)
- Slow hips right and left (4)
- 4 Quick hips right, left, right, left (4)
- Circle your hips with full ROM going towards the right (8)
Add some love:
- "L" = Grapevine L (8)
- "O" = March in a circle, lead direction to face front (8)
- "V" = V-step (4)
- "E" = Step right, abduct left, walk left and right (4)
Step left, abduct right, walk right and left (4)
Step right, abduct left, walk left and right (4)
(move forward a little on each walk to make the "E's"
back)
Repeat from box claps leading left.
Repeat until you are ready for the stretches below. I
insert them the first time after a right lead hip circle.
- 4X Tilt the hips forward 2 and release 2 (16)
- Lift the right heel, hold, release (8)
- Lift the left heel, hold, release (8)
- Lift the right toes, hold, release (8)
- Tap the right toes up and down (8)
- Lift the left toes, hold, release (8)
- Tap the left toes up and down (8)
- Come center and warm up the back (64)
- Hands on thighs, hinge from the hips,
2X:(1,2,3,4) take it down down, (5-12) 2x round and
release the back, (13-16) come up up
4X:(1,2) take it down down,(3,4,5,6) 2x round and
release the back, (7,8) come up up.
Repeat the box clap segment on the left lead and repeat
the stretches begining left after the left hip circle.
*Box Claps: Feet about hip distance apart: (1,2) lean right
with a little bounce and clap up to the right on 2, (3,4) lean
left with a little bounce and clap up to the left on 4, (5,6)
lean down to the right with a little bounce and clap down on
6, (7,8) lean down to the left with a little bounce and clap
down on 8.
Just picture a square in front of you. You are clapping at
each corner. The bounces are a little rocking motion.
Let me know if you use this.
