Military:
facials: angry military face up until kick line, smile the whole time :)then back to military face for the rest of the dance.
sounds: at the very beginning on the slow quick quick part we are doing a breathy huh..then on the two walks forward (right left) :) you say a breathy oh yeah..the tilt kick after the kickline is a breathy yeah..the snake sound on the splits..and finally the ripple of breathy yeahs on the 7&8 ribble beore the very end.
Jazz:
facials: start out smiling up until the kick on 5 and then do open mouth smile (remember all jumps and kicks are open mouth smile) wink when you bring your hands out to a T and cross your feet.. Keep smiling up until fan kick, open mouth smile, then back to smiling.. The rest of the dance is a huge smile :) unless we do a kick or a jump..
sounds: at the start when we are on the ground do a breath on 4 when our heads are up.. None up until the party when we get off the ground you do a breathy yeah on the first side you hit. When we open to the front do a breathy ha, only for the first set of turns.. Then it's the ta's on the ripple, stop when the ripple stops.. (don't forget that on all of the rolls down we breathe out) and then a loud yeah when we hit one, before we all push forward as a group.. and then the breathy ha on the last two turns at the end and then a loud yeah on the end hit.
Birds:
facials: smile at the start, when we turn around to go to our first spots do the i just won the lottery face :) smile unless you move your hands to your hip after the turns, do a kissy face on that part.. then smile until we move to the kick line, do a huge open mouth smile, then on the kicks just smile. smile through the whole pick a little talk a little until you look left or right then do a kissy face.. when you do your jump on the ripple do an open mouth. Smile (don't forget to mouth the words) :) up until the partner part in the third song, open mouth smile whe you look at your partner, then smile all the way through the rest of it. On flip flop fly, do the i won the lottery face again.. Smile all the way through until the run forward when your hands are in front of you.. and finish off with a smile :)
