Bubble Up
Ghislain & Marie David de Lossy / Getty ImagesHave players form a circle. Choose one player to stand in the middle, and give that player a bottle of bubbles and a multi-holed bubble wand. Ask the player to blow as many bubbles as he can up into the air. The rest of the players have to try to keep them in the air or from popping by blowing on them (in an upward direction).
When the last bubble is gone, a new player goes in the middle. Play until everyone has had a turn as the bubble blower. -

Bubble Art
olhakozachenko / Getty ImagesThis is a combination of party game and art project that kids will enjoy. Set out several bowls of dish soap paint (when making this, make sure it has the consistency of bubble soap). Have the children pair up to do this project.
One member of the team will dip their wand into the color of their choice and blow a bubble. The other teammate has to hold up a piece of paper and catch the bubble, so that it pops onto the paper, leaving a splash of color on the page. This continues until the player with the bubble wand has used all the colors he wishes to create a design on the paper. Players then switch places so that everyone can have a turn making a bubble art project.

Bubble Pop Freeze Dance
SeventyFour / Getty ImagesEvery kid loves to play freeze dance, and every kid loves popping bubbles.
This game combines the love of both for an awesome good time. To begin, have all of your party guests gather in a central space. Now play some party music and have them dance. Have a few adults blow bubbles into the dance space, and ask kids to pop as many bubbles as they can. When the music stops, kids must stop dancing, stop popping bubbles, and freeze in place. This becomes especially challenging for little ones who would rather keep popping bubbles than freeze. Anyone who fails to freeze, however, is out of the game before the next round begins. But players who are “out” don’t have to be sad, because they get to help blow the bubbles into the crowd. Keep playing until only one player remains in the dance space.

Bubble Wand Relay Race
Ghislain & Marie David de Lossy / Getty ImagesDivide kids into two teams, and have them line up behind a starting line. Place a construction cone or some kind of marker several feet away from the starting line.
One at a time, players must blow a bubble and then catch it on their wands. Once they have caught their bubbles, they must race to the marker and back without popping or losing their bubbles (if this happens, the player must go back and start over). When they get back to their teams, the wands are passed off to the next players in line, who must transport their bubbles to the marker and back. Play continues until one team completes the task. This team wins.

Bubble Tag

Bubble Wrapped

Place a small step stool in the center of the pool. One at a time, have the children sit on the stool. Then, place a hula hoop over the child, and into the bubble mixture. Let it sit for a minute. Have all of the remaining children form a circle and help to slowly lift the hula hoop, forming a big bubble around the child on the stool.

How to learn to dance twerk - Lifehacker

Butt size doesn't matter!

Twerk is just a super sexy dance that will pump your plasticity, and at the same time load your abs and back muscles well. To begin with, we will learn a few basic movements, and then we will diversify the dance vocabulary and analyze the main mistakes. And at the end you will find a bonus in the form of a playlist with suitable music.
If you have problems with your lumbar spine, exercise with caution, or better yet, consult your doctor.
Learn how to do basic elements
Booty pop back
Stand with your feet wider than shoulder width, toes slightly apart. Bend your knees and place your hands on your hips, turning them inward with your fingers, bend your lower back.
From this position, twist the pelvis down, and then, due to the deflection in the lower back, return it to its original position. Imagine that you are trying to reach the top of your head with your pelvis.
It is important to fix the upper back and work only on the lower back. You can not strain the gluteal muscles, otherwise the movement will turn out to be clamped.
If difficulties arise, try the lead-in exercise first. Place your hands on your hips so that your middle fingers rest on the protruding bones of the pelvis in front, and your thumbs - behind, closer to the sacrum. Bend your knees, move your pelvis down and then up, controlling the movement with your hands.
When you feel more confident, remove your hands and connect the movement with your knees. When the pelvis goes down, the knees bend, when it rises, they unbend. No need to lock the knees at the extreme point, they should remain slightly bent.
The pelvis moves back not only due to the straightening of the knees. The lower back must work.
Front booty pop
This movement is very similar to the previous one, only the emphasis is on pushing the pelvis forward rather than backward.
Set your feet wide and point your toes slightly out. You can put your hands on your hips to better feel the tilt. At the same time, bend your knees and sharply move your pelvis forward so that your butt goes down, and then bend your lower back and bring your pelvis back.
The emphasis is on the first phase of the movement, when the butt goes down. It is important at this moment not to pinch the buttocks, but to change the position of the pelvis due to the tension of the abdominal muscles.
Try other twerk moves
Double
This element repeats the usual booty pop, only the movement of the pelvis in it is double: down-down, up-up.
Suffle twerk
Stand with your feet wider than shoulder width. At the same time, turn one leg with your toe and knee out and transfer your weight to the opposite thigh. Then, with a small jump, switch sides.
First try to move slowly to get the point, then speed up. Jump relaxed.
Up down twerk
Arch your lower back and push your pelvis back. On the count of “one”, simultaneously round the lower back, bringing the pelvis forward, bend the knees and bring the shoulders forward. On the count of "two", bend your lower back and take your ass back in a semi-squat.
On the count of three, straighten your knees, round your lower back, and roll your shoulders forward. On the count of four, arch your back in the thoracic region, straightening your shoulders.
It turns out that at the lower point you bend in the lower back, and at the top - in the chest.
Wobble
To feel the movement, start moving slowly. Place your feet shoulder-width apart, place your palms opposite the pelvis. In turn, touch the palms with one or the other bone of the pelvis. Accelerate gradually.
You can wobble while standing upright or bent over. Practice slowly bending over and back up as you move. Important: you should not pinch, otherwise stiffness will occur and no shaking will work.
Zig zag
Get into a twerk stance, lower your right thigh first, then your left thigh. Then, one by one, lift them up to their original position. At first, perform the elements slowly, with fixation at each point, and then gradually accelerate.
You can do this movement a little higher. In this case, start with a stance on straight legs in an incline. In the same way, lower the right and left hips in turn, bending the knees, and then raise the hips, straightening the legs.
Stripper shake
Rise up on your toes and turn your heels in and out a little.
Arch your lower back, try to relax your hips as much as possible.
This element can be performed in a straight position or bent over, moving both legs at once, or one at a time.
Roll
Stand with your feet slightly wider than your shoulders, point your toes forward, tilt your body and rest your hands on your hips. Rotate your pelvis, lowering and raising it as you go.
You can do this either in a bent over position on your hips or standing up.
Happy twerk
Start in a twerk position with your toes pointing forward. Do one regular booty pop in place, then another with the toes and knees turned out to the sides, and then the next one with them returning to a straight position.
Continue turning your toes and knees out and back, tilting your pelvis as you move.
Flash
Place your feet shoulder-width apart, rise on your toes. Pull your pelvis back a little. Move quickly from foot to foot, trying to relax your buttocks.
Twist
Raise your right leg to the side, turn it with your toe and knee inward. From this position, simultaneously transfer the weight to the left thigh and turn the raised leg with the toe outward. Return your foot to the floor and repeat on the other side.
Try moving in other positions
Twerk can be danced not only while standing, but also while squatting, on all fours and even upside down on your hands, with your feet resting against the wall. Try different positions - this will help diversify your dance.
Squatting
This is the same booty pop, only squatting. If you don't have enough stretch to move freely in a deep squat, work on your hip mobility first.
Offset to one side
Good stretch is also required for this option. Otherwise, you will not be able to relax and move freely.
On all fours
First practice the standing element to get used to it. Raise one leg on the toe, turning it with the knee outward and at the same time leaning on the opposite thigh.
Then smoothly switch sides.
Now place your palms on the floor, arch your lower back, bend your knees and lift your heels off the floor. Perform a familiar movement in a new position.
This is enough to get you started. Try, combine the movements with each other and, if something fails, correct the mistakes.
Understand why you don't succeed
There are three main reasons why instead of twerking you get some bullshit. And the size of the priests has nothing to do with it.
1. You lack flexibility
To twerk well, you must have good mobility in the lumbar spine and hips. If flexibility is lacking, you can improve it by doing stretching exercises.

2. You work your upper back and shoulders
All basic movements require arching in the lower back. It is due to the lower spine that you feed the pelvis back and forth.
But if during booty pop you bend in the thoracic spine and connect your shoulders, the movement will not look like a twerk.
3. You're too tight
This is probably the biggest beginner's mistake, which results in a tight, wooden pelvic movement instead of sexual shaking.
Don't push yourself too hard, relax your buttocks and thighs, shake off tension from your arms and shoulders. All elements should be carried out easily and without clamps. The best way to relax and feel the movement is to turn on the music.
Pick up the music
We found a cool audio compilation that makes you want to dance to and not stop. The description on YouTube has the names of all the tracks.
And another big selection, this time from Yandex.Music. There are some great tracks too, and some of them are pretty slow paced so you can learn the moves in a relaxed and casual way.
Let us know how your twerking progresses in the comments. It turns out?

K-POP: culture and dance
Someone is in the subject, someone is at a loss. And we have to be on the same wavelength.
A K-POP dance direction has been launched at the Baza – let's talk about it!
K-Pop - short for "Korean pop" - is a huge culture that is rapidly developing and gaining popularity. A huge number of fans of the genre, South Korean boy bands, girl bands and solo artists are growing day by day - including in Russia! There is one important term in K-Pop culture - "idol".
That's what South Korean pop stars are called! This designation was not chosen in vain - idols must be impeccable, this is their path and mission. Appearance, vocals, the ability to behave in public and, of course, dancing. All skills must be perfect! Idols should always be in an image that is ideal in the eyes of the public.
Well, the dance direction of K-Pop is based on the stage choreography of those same idols and directly depends on the development of the industry. In the first ten years, during the early stages of K-Pop, dancing wasn't that important. They performed an exclusively decorative function: the productions were not difficult - so that fans could easily memorize them and be able to repeat them on their own. Over time, the choreography became more complex - and by the beginning of the third generation, it became as important as the musical component of any show. Moreover, they began to add acrobatic elements to the performances! As a result, the trend has passed - today choreographers use the personal skills of the group members more as a guide - it is on their basis that they develop dance concepts.
So what kind of dance direction is K-Pop? Bright, scenic, deep in its cultural component! You will not just repeat the movements of idols - you will immerse yourself in a special environment: stage preparation, musicality, self-confidence. K-Pop dance is beautiful, technical, empowering, and exciting to a new world. They include elements of different directions and a wide variety of techniques: something from hip-hop, something reminiscent of jazz funk, something in the style of Vogue!
There is one important point - in order to start dancing K-Pop, it is not at all necessary to be a fan of the culture, to be a fan of idols and keep abreast of the development of the industry. You can take it easier - and just surrender to the dance, learn cool choreographies and develop day by day. Well, if you decide to immerse yourself in culture, our teacher will help and support you.
