− | ===Directions===
| + | |
− | The facilitator starts by describing the activity and then demonstrating. Each person will say his/her first name followed by a dance move. The rest of the group imitates the move, while repeating the person's name 3 times (e.g. "Joe!, Joe!, Joe!" while doing the sprinkler dance - [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ApE__9HJa6c&NR=1 example video]). The kinesthetic motion and repetition help people remember the names, and everyone ends up laughing.

− | Most groups are a little shy about this, so it's important the facilitator do a fun move to demonstrate. If you need some inspiration, see [http://www.zefrank.com/invite/swfs/index2.html ZeFrank's How to Dance Properly].
