Waka Waka was the official song of the 2010 FIFA world cup soccer championship, held in South Africa. This dance, has been choreographed for the Move n Mingle Program. The parts of the dance follow the musical arrangement and are not repeated exactly the same number of times throughout the song. To master this dance, the dance leader needs to become familiar with the song, and then the movements flow very well.

Hoe Ana is a folk dance from the Cook Islands in Polynesia. The movements in this dance represent the migration of the islanders in search of new islands. The original dance would have been done kneeling as in a canoe. For some members of our group, this would be a difficult position, so we have elected to remain standing throughout the dance. Alternatively, it is easy to do this dance sitting in a chair for any individuals with mobility issues. This version of Hoe Ana is based upon notation by Frances Bourque Moreau.

The story I verbalize when leading dances is as follows:
Follow the birds X2
Together in the boat--swaying side to side with arms crossed
Repeat

On the water, On the water using hands to skim water surface
Looking for the land--rocking movement with hands shielding eyes
Under the Sun--hand up
Under the Moon--other hand up
Under the stars-- hands make bursting movements to the front in 4 positions
Paddle your canoe, slowly, x4
Now I see the land, hands reach forward and bring the land to yourself X2

Fast Paddling sequence:
Fast paddling x4
Get splashed--Sprinkling movements with hands x4
Dive in
And you've landed with a clap

Branle des Lavandieres, is an adapted renaissance dance from France depicting washerwomen, who did laundry on the riverbanks hundreds of years ago. The pantomime part of the dance is particularly enjoyed by everyone. The clapping section of the dance, is meant to represent the use of laundry bats/paddles that were used to hit the clothes in order to clean them. Curious? Visit
