CIP (NOT UNDER WESTERN DANCE)

Hey guys, amanda is having this cip whereby she requires a few of us to 1.choreograph a hiphop item (simple dance steps, 3 minutes top, for FIVE 14/15 yrs old non-dancers), and then another batch of us to 2.learn that choreographed item and then go down to teach them.

Choreography should be done by NEXT THURSDAY (12th Feb). Teaching of the dance should occur then. After which, the going down part will commence and end by the end of the following week (tentative, amanda will get back to us!)

You'll get CIP POINTS for doing something you love! Do volunteer! Trust me, if lots of people work together, a nicely choreographed item can be done in like, 1 day! (if there's no procrastinating)

INFORM LIYANA BY FRIDAY NIGHT 2359 (LOL) IF YOU'RE INTERESTED IN CHOREOGRAPHING / GOING DOWN TO TEACH THEM.

love,
Exco ;pp
