Sitting Circle

November 21st, 2010 by teamaholic Leave a reply »

Materials: Circle of over 25 people

Aims: Trust, fun

Procedure:

Group stands in a close circle, in queue form, with right shoulders towards the center of the circle. The circle closes so that everyone is touching the person in front and behind them. Each participant holds the waist of the person in front. Everyone bends their knees until they feel themselves supported on the knee of the person behind.

If successful (rarely happens first time) the whole group is self supported, each person sitting on the knee of the person behind.

Note: This can only be successful if the circular shape is maintained throughout and it is helpful if the group leans slightly towards the center as they are trying to settle down.

Variations: After secure sitting position is achieved everyone leans inwards slightly and raises left leg. Try to alternate stepping with right and left feet (very difficult). :)
