Worship with Dance

Ma Navu

Except for the end of Part B the entire dance is done facing into the circle, not holding hands.

Each numbered step takes two beats of music.

Part A

1. {hands on hips} Point with R toe forward
2. {hands on hips} Point with R toe to the right side
3. {hands sway backwards) Step back with R foot, then bring L foot back to meet it
4. {hands sway forwards} Step forward with R foot, then slightly bend R knee with left toe slightly off ground
5. {hands sway backwards) Shift weight back onto L foot with right toe pointing forward, then slightly bend L knee
6. {hands sway forwards} Shift weight forward with R foot, then slightly bend R knee with left toe slightly off ground
7. {hands return to hips} Shift weight back onto L tiptoe, then bring R tiptoe back to meet it
8. {hands on hips} Lower yourself from tiptoe, pause
        [repeat "mirror image", reversing right and left]

9. {hands sway at sides} Step with R foot to the right, then put L foot behind right foot
10. {hands sway at sides} Cross R foot in front of L, then pivot to face RLOD swinging your L foot around but not stepping onto it yet

12. (facing RLOD) {hands raised like a Tcherkessia} Step forward again with L foot, then again bring R foot directly behind left foot but this time do not step onto R foot
