Shadow Battles

Everyone faces a partner and they have to copy what partner is doing. Leader encourages them verbally to start small (just fingers moving) then start making bigger movements with focus on control and fluidity. See if they can copy each other balancing or with balletic arm movements.

Then one person stays still and becomes the “statue” and the other person tries to make them do the moves (dance moves or balance poses) without talking or touching or demonstrating the movement fully themselves.

• May require some adjustment to suit Pre-School aged children, the elderly, pregnant women or SEND participants.
