Dance- Monday- 3rd period
Class was being held in the gym today, where there were mats, ribbons, balls, clubs, and hoops. Also, instead of Kitty, there was a guy in a wheelchair.
"Hey, class. Kitty couldn't be here today, so she asked me to fill in," Flash said. "I'm Coach Thompson. I run the Sports workshop on Fridays. And beyond the basics that you might have to do at a school dance or wedding, I don't know much about dancing at all. But I know a little bit about something that involves dancing."
"There's a sport called rhythmic gymnastics. It's a lot like regular gymnastics, but it's more dance-y and usually involves one of these props," Flash said, gesturing to the stuff off to the side. "It first developed in its current form in the 1940's before making it into the 1984 Olympics. The props get used as part of a floor routine, and you use them pretty much how you'd expect. You throw and bounce the ball, twirl the ribbon, spin the hoop around yourself, throw the clubs... Pretty much whatever you can do to express whatever feeling you're trying to express in your routine. And, of course, doing it with a high level of technical expertise."
"I don't expect any of you to be that great with any of this stuff yet," Flash said. "But try some stuff out and see what you can do to put together a routine. Have fun with it. And try not to club anyone by accident."
