Warm ups (video)

Before we sing, we are going to warm up our whole body, particularly our neck and our shoulders. First of all, we're going to move our neck gently, round and round like a figure of eight on its side. Imagine you have got a pencil on the end of your nose and you're trying to draw a figure of eight on its side. Now, gently bend your neck to one side, maybe feel the stretch along here, and gently bend it the other way. Now we're gonna do some shoulder rolls. Roll your shoulders forward and up and back and round. Let's do that a couple of times. Can you do it the other way? Go up and forward and down and back. Let's do that a couple of times. Now let's take one arm over our head to the side and stretch, and let's do it the other way. Finally, let's scrunch our shoulders up to our ears, and let go. And scrunch, and let go. And scrunch, and let go. Last time, scrunch, and let go. Now let's warm up our face. Imagine you are chewing some bubble gum. What flavor is your bubblegum? Mine is cherry. I'm going to unwrap my bubblegum, pop it in my mouth, and have a good chew. Why don't you join in? Let's do some big chews. And some little chews. Oh, my bubble gums got stuck behind my teeth. I need to use my tongue to get it out. That's enough chewing now. I'm going to take it out, and put it behind my ear for another day. Join in with this breathing warmup. We're going to draw a square in the air with our finger as we do it. First, we're going to breathe in for four beats, hold our breath for four beats, breathe out for four beats, and hold our breath for four beats. Are you ready? Well done, listen to this tongue twister. If a dog chews shoes, whose shoes does he choose? Now, you join in. If a dog chews shoes, whose shoes does he choose?
