Teambuilding activity: Chinese clinging
Chinese clinging is an activity to be done as part of a series of "Trust Exercises."
This activity promotes:
- Team building
- Making contact
- And who knows what else
Below are the instructions:
Time: 5 - 10 minutes Participants: 2 or more Indoor and outdoor Active
Materials required: None
Initial setup: Pair up participants. The most convenient way is to have the group form two lines facing each other, creating a limited row.
Framework: Participants work in pairs.
Gameplay: The instructions are as follows:
- Everyone places their hands against their partner's hands in the game.
- Let a kind of dance emerge where you keep your hands against each other and move in various directions. In this, you can lead or follow.
- Gradually increase the pressure by pushing harder against each other.
- See how you can continue dancing and sticking together in balance.
- The dance stops if either one loses their balance.
Differentiation:
By changing partners, you introduce a different dynamic each time. The one who loses balance is considered the loser.
Evaluation:
What happened? How was it for you?
Safety check:
Ensure that people do not bend their backs backward.
Important note!:
People should not move their feet!
