Getting synced with your teammates is why we warm up. Give this activity a try!

Everyone in a circle.  One by one, in no particular order, we enter the circle.

"Tonight I'm..."

First we share our current mindset with the group. For example, "Tonight I'm feeling tired. I stayed up too late and woke up too early."

"So, tonight I'm gonna..."

Second, we commit to bringing to stage a different energy than we're currently feeling AND we make that energy incarnate with a character, sound, action, emotion, line of dialogue, etc. For example, "So, tonight I'm gonna go ape," and I act like a gorilla, howl and beat my chest.

And "We're with you!"

Third, everyone around the circle says, "We're with you!" and mirrors your character, sound, action, etc. For example, we're all acting like gorillas.

Then the next person goes. Repeat.

Simple. Easy. Quick. And it gives us a moment to let our fellow players into our heads and aware of our intentions. AND it gives us all a chance to show our commitment to enthusiastic agreement and collaboration. 

Try it!
