Roll Up, Roll Up Boogie Beebies

# Dance, dance, dance

# Come and dance with Boogie Beebies

# Dance, dance, dance

# Come and dance with Boogie Beebies

# Boogie...Beebies

# Boogie...Beebies

# Boogie Beebies Boogie Beebies

# Yeah! #

Yes! It's Boogie Beebies - your chance to dance.

I'm Boogie Pete and I want you to join in and copy me.

First, let's warm up our bodies. Let's clear a space.

Put a smile on your face and try on some shoes.

Here we go. Let's put on our space shoes first... Yeah!

Let's pretend we're walking on the moon. Oh...

Let's go for a walk this way.

And now let's go the other way.

And put on our stomp shoes.

We can stomp...

and then stomp!

One way...

and then the other way. Are you stomping?

One way...

and then the other way.

OK, let's put on our trainers.

We can run. That's it.

Run really fast!

We can run this way.

And then we can run this way. Ooh!

Let's run all the way around.

And put on our wellies.

We can splash in the puddles.

Yeah!

Keep jumping. That's it!

Let's jump to one side.

And then the other side.

Let's jump one way, and then the other way.

And put on our Boogie shoes.

Yeah! That's it.

Let's go forwards and backwards.

And forwards and backwards.

Now let's twist.

Ooh, I feel cool.

And now freestyle.

Do whatever you like.

Yeah!

# Boogie Beebies Boogie Beebies Yeah! #

Brilliant! Now I feel ready to dance. Do you?

Great! We'll need lots of energy for today's song.

Can you guess where we're going?

It's something that takes place in a tent - a very big tent.

And lots of people come to watch.

Yes! We're inside the Big Top.

Today we join the circus!

# Roll up! Roll up! Come and join the band

-# Roll up! Roll up!

-See the circus

-Roll up! Roll up!

-# Greatest in the land

-Roll up! Roll up!

# Roll up! Roll up!

-# Come and join the band

-Roll up! Roll up!

-# See the circus

-Roll up! Roll up!

# Greatest in the land. #

One, two, three, four, oh...

One, two, three, eh...

Oh, heh-heh! I was just practising my juggling.

It's more difficult than it looks!

Maybe we should stick to the dancing. Remember the chorus moves?

Let's start with the circus ring.

That's it!

Dance around in a big circle.

Let's do the ringmaster gesture.

And big finish!

Yes!

-# Roll up! Roll up!

-Come and join the band

# Roll up! Roll up!

-# See the circus

-Roll up! Roll up!

# Greatest in the land. #

Brilliant. That's the main part of the song. It's called the chorus.

It'll come back again and again.

Don't worry if you didn't get it right.

You will once you've heard it again.

Now we need to find more moves for the verses of our song.

The verses are the bits in between the chorus.

Look at these guys, they're called acrobats.

They tumble. They balance. They stand on their hands.

They jump really high!

They have to practise a lot to do things like this.

That's called a cartwheel.

It looks a bit like a cartwheel turning.

I don't think we'll do any real cartwheels in our dance.

But we can use that move.

Start by putting one of our arms up like this -

as if we're about to do a cartwheel.

Then we can swap and do the same with the other arm.

One arm, then the other arm.

One arm, then the other arm.

Great! Let's try that again, shall we?

Put one arm up as if we're doing a cartwheel.

Then change arms.

That's it, one arm, then the other arm.

One arm, then the other arm.

Fantastic!

Now we've done some tumbling, let's see what else our acrobats can do.

The acrobats climb onto each other's shoulders

to make a human pyramid. Let's pretend to do that.

Start by lifting up one of the acrobats up really high.

Like this, really stretch.

And then, ooh, don't slip!

Now we're in a nice sturdy position,

we can pretend there's an acrobat balancing on our shoulders.

Let's try that again.

We can lift up one of the acrobats, really high.

Really stretch up. And then, ooh, don't slip.

Now we're in a sturdy position

and pretend there's an acrobat on our back. Great!

Let's see if the Boogie Bunch are keeping up.

So we've got our tumbling moves.

We've also got our human pyramid move.

Don't slip!

But there's something else that acrobats are really good at -

you have to be able to jump really high.

So let's put some jumping into our dance.

We can jump one way and swing our arms.

And then jump the other way.

Jump one way and jump the other way.

Great! So we've got our tumbling moves.

And we can build a human pyramid.

Ooh! Don't slip.

And now we've got our jumping moves.

Can the Boogie Bunch put those moves together with some music?

# Come and meet the acrobats Who jump and spin and flip.

# They make a human pyramid Oh, don't slip!

# You've got to jump real high

# Jump real high

# Jump real high... #

Now it's your turn!

Let's see you tumbling.

Here we go.

# Come and meet the acrobats Who jump and spin and flip.

# They make a human pyramid Oh, don't slip!

# You've got to jump real high

# Jump real high

# Jump real high

# Jump real high... #

Great jumping!

Ha-ha! I think it's time we took a break,

and checked out the ways you like to dance. Do you boogie?

Hello, I'm Marta and I love dancing with my sister, Lorinda,

-and my friend, Elliot.

-ALL: We all love African dancing.

I love African dancing because it's energetic.

Our teacher's name is Michael, he smiles a lot and jumps around.

He shows us all the different moves.

We wear special costumes which are pretty and colourful.

Our dancing is different because we dance to live drums and bells.

The drums are really loud.

The bell keeps the rhythm for the drums and the dancing.

It's easier for us to dance in bare feet.

The name of the dance is Gota from Ghana.

A dance tells a story about people carrying water from the river.

My favourite move is this one because it's like you're waving.

My favourite move is the chicken move.

My favourite move is this one because it's really lively.

ALL: And that's how we love to dance. Bye!

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

You were the stars of the show today. Listen to that applause.

You'd better take a bow.

Well, it's time to go now. Let's take a deep breath in.

And blow up a big ball.

# Stretch yourself wide

# Down to the side

# We've danced with Boogie Beebies

# Blow up a ball

# Make yourself small

# We've danced with Boogie Beebies. #

You really showed off your circus skills today.

Come back to the circus tomorrow. Bye!
