Family Moodboosters: Dance Party Mega Mix

Hi, I’m Oti. Are you ready to boost your mood with me?

Now whether you're at home or somewhere else with your family, get involved and go bananas.

We are going to dance our socks off while listening to lots of different styles of music.

By the end of our dance party, we will feel happy and full of fun as a family!

So let’s start with some feel-good pop music, and step to the side from right to left,

And click your fingers, or you can clap.

Sometimes we can feel a bit sad or upset, so dancing can make us feel happy.

So let’s dance together and give ourselves a boost!

Now when you hear this noise, that means the music will change and we will switch to a different type of dance.

You can dance like me, or you can dance in any way you choose, just keep dancing!

Let’s rock!

Now watch out for those near you.

Giving yourself plenty of space.

Let’s try some headbanging, shake your head and flick your hair around!

And air guitar, boom, boom, boom, boom!

And air guitar!

Let's really go for it!

Okay, we're changing now.

We have to slow it down, now try and be graceful with your movements, hands to the side and point your toes.

Let's be brave with this one and try a spin.

That's it, well done!

And just like that the music has changed.

Now let's try some line dancing.

Okay, so now we're going to go to the side.

Just like that.

See I was feeling a little bit fed up earlier now this is really cheering me up!

Yes techno, let's see if you can join in.

Little fish, now big fish,

Now cardboard box and you stack the shelves.

Now go a little bit lower, higher and happy shopper.

Make sure you smile when you do this.

Now we're going to pick the apples.

And pick the mushrooms.

Oops, it's changed again.

Ok, that sounds like Charleston - we’ve gone back to the 1920s!

Copy me!

So now you can copy me and lift your feet.

Move forward.

Now we're going to add a little kick.

We're gonna go kick and back, and kick and down.

And kick and down.

Feet up, feet up.

And now we're going to do the last one, which is a disco.

So now we're going to put our hands in the air, other way.

Go, one, two, three, four.

Shake to the side and shake to the side.

Well done everyone who boosted at home.

I really feel proud of us for taking time to boost today.

I was feeling a little bit "meh" this morning, but dancing with you has really cheered me up!

Now let’s say together: "I feel good!”

Are you ready? "I feel good!”

Well done!

Hope to see you all soon and remember… keeeeeep dancing!

Bye!
