Woosh

Pass a sound and movement around the circle — with special moves to change direction.

Requires attention and quick decisions — energizes without requiring anything intellectual.

Instructions

Pass a "Woosh" around by sweeping arms toward the next person. Special moves: "Whoa" (hands up) reverses direction; "Zap" (point across) sends it across the circle; "Tunnel" (two people arch arms) — everyone ducks under. Anyone who hesitates is out.
