Get set up
No equipment is required. Gather the group where everyone can hear the explanation and demonstrate one sample turn before starting.
LET’S PLAY
Here’s how it works.
- Pair players and face partners.
- Choose one leader in each pair.
- For about one minute, leaders move slowly while partners mirror.
- Switch roles.
- Finish with a round where neither person is the official leader and both try to stay synchronized.
A few ground rules
Keep the agreed turn order, boundaries and timing consistent for everyone. Players may pass or use an accessibility adaptation without penalty.
Mix it up
Use only hand movements, seated movement or music.
Make it a great round
Keep rounds short, demonstrate the movement, and reset the play area before the next round.
Keep everyone comfortable
Invite players to pass or adapt the activity. Keep walkways clear and choose a seated version when movement is unsuitable.
