Thank you.
Oh, they love me.
[sighs] [Brianna humming] - Nice moves, Brianna.
- Oh, thank you, Mina.
Good luck out there, CJ.
[Brianna humming] [gentle music] - You are up next, CJ.
What's the name of your act again?
- We're going to do a song I wrote?
- Ah, got it.
Oh, here it is, Song of CJ.
Darnell, don't eat that.
It's for Myla's magic act.
[Mina chuckles] - Oh, I am so excited.
I have never performed in front of other people before.
[CJ groans] - CJ?
What's going on?
- I'm nervous about going out in front of all those people and singing.
- Nervous?
But we've been practicing all day.
[laughs] - That was different.
And now everyone's grownups are here, watching.
[groans] Uh-oh.
Uh-oh.
- When I know people are watching me, I get nervous too.
Like at my last basketball game, I had to make a free throw.
Everyone just stared at me.
My whole body was heavy.
I felt like I couldn't catch my breath.
It was kind of scary.
- That happens to you too?
What?
What do you do?
- I shake out the yuck.
- Shake out the, what?
What's the yuck?
- Yuck is all those heavy feelings.
Like, when I'm nervous or scared or both, I imagine those feelings are stuck all over me.
And then I shake them off like this.
[Mina speaking gibberish] [Mina sighs] See?
Shaking out the yuck is so much fun.
You can move around however you want.
You can shake, run around, jump up and down.
Wanna do it together?
- Sure.
I certainly feel yucky right now.
- Okay.
Imagine those heavy feelings stuck all over your body.
[gentle music] - Yuck.
[groans] What's next?
- Now we shake 'em off.
[CJ and Mina speaking gibberish] - [laughs] It's working.
[CJ and Mina speaking gibberish] Oh, they're gone.
Oh, I feel so much lighter, like I could sing in front of the whole school right now.
Ha!
Anytime that you're feeling nervous or scared, just imagine those heavy feelings are little yucks stuck to your body and you just gotta shake 'em out.
Ha, you can do it before a test, a game, anything that makes you feel yucky.
- [Both] Shake out the yuck.
[CJ and Mina laughing] - CJ, Mina, get ready to go on stage.
- Ready, Mina?
- Oh, right behind you CJ.
- Let's go.
