This
improv game is in the following improv game categories:
Clap Snap Association
Description
This one is like a
Free Association Circle , except that the rhythm is more
explicit. Here`s how to do the rhythm: each beat consists of 4 phases:
- Slap both hands on your thighs
- Clap your hands
- Snap your left hand fingers
- Snap your right hand fingers
With every right hand snap, a word should be thrown to your neighbor. Once the rhythm is established, you can leave out the snaps - that`ll make things more
understandable.
Variations
-
You can use this for both Last Letter games or Free Association Circle .
- Try this with two circles. Have one circle associate freely, and another
circle on Last Letter . Whenever a player misses a beat she should switch
circles.
Notes
If you do this with 2 circles, you will probably find that the rhythms for both
circles synchronize.
