Since we have an even amount of people it will make it a lot easier for me to make the groups smaller. I want to have smaller groups and larger groups throughout the dance. Take some people off at times and show case small groups. But I do want to have times when every single person is on stage. I want to have fun with this dance since this song is a fun song! I am working on getting my choreography better so PLEASE bare with me! If you have any suggestions please let me know also.

Okay I am not sure exactly what will happen the first 8 counts (3 seconds of the song). Mostly likely run out to our positions on different counts. On count 8 there is an accent and everyone must be at their spot/in position on this beat. There are a little over 14 counts of 8 till the chorus of the song.
The next 3 counts of 8 I want four lines coming out from the sides (these will be called group A B C D for now).
A- (Numbers 1, 3, 5) Will go across the very front of the stage from the right(facing towards the audience)
B- (Numbers 2, 4, 6) Will come across stage from the left(facing the audience) half between the front and middle
C-(Numbers 7, 9, 11) Will go across the stage from the back right(facing the audience) half way between the middle and back
D-(Numbers 8, 10, 12) Will come across the stage from the left(facing the audience) in the very back.
Groups A and C will be stepping out with their left foot (1-2) then dragging their right foot across their left (3-4) step out left (5-6) drag right across (7-8) repeat two more times till you run off the stage. MAKE THESE BIG AND SHOWY!! Each person must hold 4 before following out onto stage. Everyone should end up off stage or pretty close to it where you can just walk off. The last person in each line must make these BIG! I do not want anyone of these groups left on stage.
Groups B and D will hold (1-2-3-4) chaisse right(5-6) step(7) leap(8) turn out(1-2) body roll down(3-4-5) step up(6) pirouette prep into turn(7-8) chaisse(1-2) step(3) leap(4) turn out(5-6) step(7) step(8). The first person in each line will end close to or off stage (this is okay you will be coming back on shortly) everyone else stops where they are. These are not big just put a lot of attitude in them!
For the next 8 counts we will prepare for a pirouette (1-2) {make these noticeable} double pirouette turn (3-4) straddle jump (5-6) you should land left knee on the ground and right knee popped up resting on the ball of your feet. fall back on your butt(7) turn to the back of the stage popping your legs open(8) throw your arms back(1) then your head(2) hold (3-8) you can relax but don’t move!
Groups A&C will do chaines out onto the stage from the left and right to get to these positions:
#1*3*9-come from the left side
#7*11*5-come from the right side
PLEASE WATCH FOR THOSE ON THE FLOOR!!
Chaine Sequence
#11*4*5-one chaine(1-2) then a butterfly turn(3-4) land facing center stage arabesque(5-8)
#1*10*6*7-two chaine turns(1-2-3-4) butterfly turn(5-6) land facing center stage arabesque(7-8)
#3*2*9-three chaine turns(1-2-3-4-5-6)butterfly turn land facing center in an arabesque(7-8)
#8 and 12 pique walk to(1-2-3-4-5-6): turn to face the back to the music(7-8)
While this is going on Groups A&C still in arabesque move on your L or R leg{{#1*2*11*4*9 with your left leg--#3*6*10*5*7 with your right leg}} to face the back(1-2-3-4)hold(5) move leg to back attitude(6-7) hold(8)
More will come later!
