01 CREATIVE CHALLENGE

01 PHYSICAL ACTIVITY CHALLENGE

If you have never been on Tik -Tok - where

have you been hiding?!

Tik Tok (formerly known as musical.ly) is a

social media platform for creating, sharing and

discovering short music videos, think Karaoke

for the digital age. The app musical.ly was

used by young people as an outlet to express

themselves through singing, dancing, comedy,

and lip-syncing. Tik Tok allows you to share

short 15 sec videos.

Tik Tok is one of the biggest crazes currently

with young people. The Dance Tik Tok videos

have a selection of quick and easy arm and

foot patterns combined into short sequences.

Although I say easy, it may take you some

time to replicate the movements at speed.

Not Sure? The following video links will go

through a selection of movements linked to

songs….

…..which you can try to learn.
