Observation feedback

After undertaking a smaller group pilot observation I asked the 5 participants to give me feedback:
I will pick out helpful sentences.

Did you enjoy yourselves?
'Yes, the music was great.'
'I liked how there was no pressure when we were dancing in 2's to get it right.'

Did you understand what I was asking you to do?
'Mostly, I was a bit confused transitioning between each routine.'
'It was really different to anything I've done, so I was a bit pessimistic'

'Is there anything that you didn't understand or want to do?'
'Why we did the questionnaire twice...'


Was the length of time ok?
'No need to do a cool down for 15mins - maybe just let each individual do a cool down'
'Was challenging learning 3 counts of 8 in 5 minutes when the learning style is difficult but it made it fun'

From this I can see I need to clarify some actions to my participants - like why I am asking them to fill in the questionnaire twice.  Maybe shorten the cool down to 10mins.

I will keep my music choices as people liked them. I feel I got a good balance between current songs and some older hits. For the cool down I put on some calming music and possibly let the participants lead it themselves.
