Body Percussion
Musicians and teachers are helping children to enjoy life here. These children are beginning body percussion in time with the Radetsky March by Johann Strauss which is often played at a big New Year's Day concert in Vienna.
The children here have obviously been practising! You will need to start simple but, once the children have begun body percussion, they will love it and it's a good way to help them to feel and move in time to the pulse. You could use any suitable piece of music that you like and there are loads of suggestions on the Maria Jose Sanchez Parra Youtube channel.
