Improvisation: to make, invent, or change on the spot
|
When we improvise we take something that we are familiar with and change it a little bit so that it becomes DIFFERENT. When we change our motions in "Hello There" we are improvising, or making the song a little different.

Cuando improvisamos, tomamos algo con lo que estamos familiarizados y lo cambiamos un poco para que se vuelva DIFERENTE. Cuando cambiamos nuestros movimientos en "Hello There" estamos improvisando, o haciendo la canción un poco diferente.
