“Step in Time”

At the beginning of the song there are 3 counts. We start facing the back. We wait on the first count. Rows 1 and 3 turn to face the front on the second count and rows 2 and 4 turn to face the front on the third count. All turning on our left foot and landing with our hands on our knees. We are in rows.

The lyrics start, they sing;

Step in time, step in time, come on ladies, step in time

On these words we skip merrily whilst changing places.

Punch right hand down towards the floor then do the same with left hand. Repeat but put hands behind back. Then do a body roll.

(Counts 1-6).

For counts 7 and 8 clap hands above head.

Repeat step 4 but without the claps.

Skip forward for 4 counts and then back for 4.

Punch left hand then right hand towards the floor for counts 1 and 2. On counts 3 and 4 bend knees and rise up again, pulling arms up when your knees bend.

Repeat knee bending for counts 5 and 6.

On count 7 swing them round over your head to face the right.

Repeat punching arms ...

Count 1- 4 kick your knees up step in time kick legs 4 times starting with your right leg still facing the right. For counts 5-8 turn to the front and kick 4 more times.

Jump out with both feet landing in 2nd position. Then jump, turning towards your left shoulder to face the back, landing in 2nd position.

Facing the back do 4 flick ball changes.

Round the chimney – the whole group forms a circle with right arm raised towards the middle, except the 3 boys in the middle. The whole group skips around in a circle for 8 counts.

After skips, do 2 quick turns for counts 1-4 landing so you are now walking backwards with left arm pointing towards the middle for counts 5-8 then jump around halfway and clap for counts 1-2. Then jump back landing both times landing in 2nd position.

Flap like a birdie – flap your hands up and down for counts 1 and 2, clap twice repeat 3 times whilst skipping then jump into 2nd position bringing your arms up.

Over the railings (partner work) partner number 2 lifts number 1 to their left.

Number 1 is now on the left side of number 2. Both partners turn to face each other, slap both hands on your knees then slap your right hand and do the same with left hand. Then slap your knees again and slap both of your hands onto your partners. Spin towards the left and slap your right hand onto your partners.

Partner 1 lies on the floor then number 2 stands at the left side of no.1 and claps twice. She then jumps over to the rite of number 1 and claps twice repeat this 3 times. No1 is then lifted through no 2 legs so she is now standing in front of number 2.

Link your elbows – link into a big line then do 8 kicks forward then 6 kicks back then spin in your own space.

Starting with your right foot kick forward 4 times then 4 to the side. Step on the left foot then kick the right foot in the air do the same on the other side and repeat once more.

Do a full turn and do a pose.
