Creative Combos - YWCA - 05/31/2012

This fun combination was created by students in class on May 31, 2012 (YWCA).  We began with each student drawing a movement from a basket.  Then students were paired up to create a short combo using each move.  Finally, all combos were strung together to create the following choreography.
