Energizer: Memorize my moves
Energizer: Memorize my moves is a circle dialogue exercise for reflection and learning: it helps participants reflect on experience and turn observations into learning.
How to run it
- Step 2 Explain: One person will begin the game by showing everyone a quick dance move or movement, for example, stomping feet, jumping in the air, or spinning in a circle.
- The person to their right must copy the dance move, then create their own.
- The third person must copy both dance moves and create their own, and so on, until everyone has had a turn.
