Here are some choreography moves for "Right Now" from Music K-8, Vol. 10, No. 1. For the first three measures, I just let them free dance or just wait to start.
Right Now = Put hands in an "I don't know" pose. Palms facing up level with your shoulders and elbows bent. On the word "now," bring hands towards the middle with all fingers pointing downwards (fingers should be together).Right na na na na now = On the word "right," place hands in the "I don't know pose," and on the na na na now part, cross your arms to make an X with fingers pointing down and alternate your hands up and down (move with the music).
Woh = We call it "Wax on." Make circles counterclockwise with palms facing outward.
Right Now. Right na na na na now = Do the same movements as before.
Yeah = Raise the roof. With palms facing up, bend your arms so that your hands are at your shoulders and pulse hands up and down.
Right now. Right na na na na now = Do movements as before.
Ooh = "Wax off": make circles clockwise with palms facing out.
Right now. Right na na na na now = Do movements as before.
During measures 11 through 16 we start to sway side to side while step-touching with our feet. We also clap on two and four. Every time we get to the words "right now," we do the movements as explained above.
During measures 16 through 22 repeat the "Right Now" movements
Measure 22 starts the slow lyrical part "Angelically"
Live life right now = Start with hands at waist level and slowly raise your hands to your sides, shoulder level.
Live in each moment, live each day. = Continue to raise hands slowly above your head in an arching motion.
Time does not wait = Do a burst (finger shaped in an "o" then flicked open), then start to slowly arch hands to your side, at shoulder level.
Live in each moment while you may = Continue to slowly move your hands to your side at waist level.
Repeat all moves starting from the beginning (D.S. Al Coda).
